About a year ago I was having issues with getting video on suspend with my GTX 970 as outlined in [this bug](https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/driver-545-29-06-0-no-video-or-ssh-on-resume-from-suspend/275633). Since updating from driver version 550 to 560 and then 565, the same behaviour is happening again, albeit SSH is not affected and I do get video if I log out of X (`pkill -15 openbox`) and go back to the console. Suspending and resuming from the console works as well. I have `options nvidia NVreg_PreserveVideoMemoryAllocations=0` set in modprobe.conf as otherwise suspend isn’t attempted at all. I think this is because PVMA requires systemd, which my distro (Artix Linux) does not use. I’ve attached a log that I took through SSH just after resuming and getting the black screen. [nvidia-bug-report.log.gz](https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/uploads/short-url/wl7NPHbdcMr09BoVpLdt8hbqsmz.gz) (809.4 KB) I also ran dmesg, which gave: > [1411.051372] NVRM: GPU at PCI:0000:01:00: GPU-2db68d4b-576a-eacc-6aa4-b122c012879c > [1411.051376] NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 13, pid=‘’, name=, Graphics Exception: Shader Program Header 1 Error > [1411.051379] NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 13, pid=‘’, name=, Graphics Exception: Shader Program Header 2 Error > [1411.051381] NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 13, pid=‘’, name=, Graphics Exception: Shader Program Header 3 Error > [1411.051382] NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 13, pid=‘’, name=, Graphics Exception: Shader Program Header 9 Error > [1411.051384] NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 13, pid=‘’, name=, Graphics Exception: Shader Program Header 18 Error > [1411.051385] NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 13, pid=‘’, name=, Graphics Exception: Shader Program Header 22 Error > [1411.051387] NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 13, pid=‘’, name=, Graphics Exception: ESR 0x405840=0xa044020e > [1411.051391] NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 13, pid=‘’, name=, Graphics Exception: ESR 0x405848=0x80000000 > [1411.051516] NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 13, pid=‘’, name=, Graphics Exception: ChID 0008, Class 0000b197, Offset 00002390, Data 44820000 ---

The issue hasn’t gone away. Can this be escalated please? ---

While a solution is being found, I’ve found 2 potential workarounds: 1. Add the following lines to `/etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf` and suspend normally ```auto options nvidia NVreg_PreserveVideoMemoryAllocations=0 options nvidia_drm modeset=0 ``` 1. Leave `/etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf` empty and use a custom command to suspend: `bash -c "/usr/bin/nvidia-sleep.sh suspend; echo mem > /sys/power/state; /usr/bin/nvidia-sleep.sh resume"`
