NVIDIA GPU users - driver feedback wanted!

JayC

5060 on my laptop so it is using open.

2070ti on my desktop and installed the open driver module there as well since that is what I had installed on my laptop.

Have not had any issues on Plasma.

I'm on current kernel and always installed drivers for current kernel, but always same result lightdm service failed to start.
It's notebook with Nvidia Optimus with MUX switch, tried lots of other distros but it seems that it's problem with lightdm or X11 itself as Xfce, Cinnamon ended up same. Cachy KDE with SDDM works just fine, other distros with Kde too including Solus. I'm just used to Budgie ( others with Budgie no matter the flavor failed to boot with same error btw )
If there's anything I can do to help to make it work I'm gonna do it. Maybe because open driver doesn't list 5060 Max-Q version specifically?
Thanks anyway...

I just tested my old Dell XPS 15 which has a 1650 ti and the open version worked smoothly.

Two plasma with 1030 Pascal card using 580, hope support continues.

GTX 1650 here, most games stutter, had to switch to Arch

What driver is that? Nvidia-open?

Yes it is, forgot to mention that i had to wake up my discrete gpu on every startup through vkcube

Maybe it would be nice to have Nvidia-open 590 driver in the repo too, with beta tag

Yeah, it would be good to have the open version since the proprietary won't work on the 50 series cards.

I have a feeling we are moving to the open drivers anyway, which would make sense development time wise.
