Looks like an nvidia driver issue. (In reply to Matt Turner from comment #1) > Looks like an nvidia driver issue. And unfortunately nothing can really do about it downstream. It's mostly closed source, and I doubt it's a packaging issue (sounds possibly hardware-specific). fwiw there's several supported branches/version and you could try to see if another version helps. Notably could try ~testing's =nvidia-drivers-535.146.02 that just released today (has several bug fixes, due to be stabilized in bit over a week or so). There's also the older (despite higher version number, different branch) 545.29.06 that could help albeit it may be lacking fixes from today's release. Bare that, the older 525 branch is still supported and you could try that as well. Do make sure you're always using the right kernel that you've built the modules against, mismatching modules does result in a black screen either way. Upgrading to x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-535.146.02:0/535 didnt fix the issue. It seems that the problem is faster to recover when no firefox process are running. Upgraded to x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-545.29.06-r1:0/545 no change. Killing all firefox reduce the problem, but it still present. Note that in driver sources in html/knownissues.html I saw a chapter about Console restore behavior. So I tried to boot with nvidia_drm.modeset=1 and for the moment is seems to fix the issue. |
