I’m using Arch Linux and received the update from the 375.26 to the 378.13 driver last week. After the 378.13 installation, xorg won’t start anymore and I get the following messages in my kernel log:

When I revert back to the 375.26 driver, everything works again. The graphics card in question is a GTX 770.
PS. The sticky readme in this forum says to always include nvidia-bug-report.log.gz when reporting problems. I’d include it, but I don’t see any way to attach files to a forum post?(nevermind, found it)
