I just upgraded my nvidia driver and kernel on tumbleweed and now my main monitor can't go to 240hz without losing input. Am I the only one? It works fine on 60 and could work perfectly on 240hz before the update

The new kernel driver 545 is constantly throwing error on cold boot. It will reach a workable desktop though.

If I reboot after the cold boot, the driver loads normally without error.

This is the first time I see information at startup about the nVidia driver loading.

Edit: I'll just buy a AMD card next time and be done with this crap.

Also on a side note, I can't even logon to a Wayland session, like ever. The desktop is black with only the cursor and after a couple of seconds Kwin always crashes.

I'll stay on x11 for now.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
