And this is why compiling isn't evidence that something works. :) |

What nvidia driver version are you using? |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Also, why are you using it at all? The proprietary drivers their pros |
| 12 |
and cons. The issues you're running into are one of the well-known |
| 13 |
cons - if you want to run stable kernels, they'll be occasionally |
| 14 |
breaking, and if you run mainline kernels they'll break all the time. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
If you're going to run out-of-tree kernels you should almost certainly |
| 17 |
stick to longterm kernels. |

Usually people use the proprietary drivers for gaming, |
| 20 |
high-performance 3D graphics in general, or CUDA (AI, video encoding, |
| 21 |
etc). If you aren't doing one of those then I suspect the |
| 22 |
linux-supplied drivers will just work and shouldn't ever break. You |
| 23 |
can run stable kernels all you want with those. |
