Another "my external monitor froze" bug report

My external monitor crashed after I launched gamescope (args were gamemoderun gamescope -e -f -w 1920 -h 1080 – steam -gamepadui). NVIDIA drivers have just been updated.

I can find

[ 1323.851518] nvidia-uvm: Loaded the UVM driver, major device number 507.

in the dmesg output.
EndeavourOS / NVIDIA RTX 3060 Mobile / nvidia-open 535.98

I’m still experiencing it, now more than ever (basically one time out of five when I alt+tab out of a game). However I don’t have any output in dmesg.

Now running nvidia-dkms 535.113.01

thanks for the feedback.

Hi All,

I am following up on bug 4322356 which seems to be fixed except one second freeze which is happening while resizing application which recover itself.

Just wanted to check if anyone is experiencing complete external monitor freeze issue with latest r590 driver release.
