Bug#950128: Experimental
Hi there, I agree that a fix should be done. Personally, I'm not a contributor but just someone who was affected by the same issue. I'd be happy to help fix it if someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks, Mohammed
Bug#950128: Fix included in 440.31
Hi everyone, Based on some small research, I've discovered that there was a fix included for this in 440.31 (which I'm not sure we can either backport or bump version): https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1065987/announcements-and-news/linux-solaris-and-freebsd-driver-440-31-long-lived-branch-release-/ As a temporary fix, and I only suggest this for the brave, I would enable experimental repositories: deb http://deb.debian.org/debian experimental main non-free ...and install the 440.44 driver from there which includes that fix. (please understand the consequences of doing the above before doing so) Good luck Mohammed
Bug#950128:
I can confirm the same issue on my side. I have not attempted any workarounds but reading online this seems to be related to changes some Kernel symbol changes. http://rglinuxtech.com/?p=2614 The reading also has a patch in there which might help.
