What system to you use? I use KDE Neon.
but is 525.125.06 stable? Apart from the games, it is ok? Because i read somewhere that 525.125.06 also has the same bug.
Manjaro Gnome, do you have an interface on KDE to do that?
@ngbit.sec I have tested version 530.41.03 and it was excellent, only now I had to reinstall
Yes, there is also an Interface with “software-properties-qt”. There in choose my favorite driver. On the CMD ein can do that with this:
apt remove *nvidia* --purge
reboot or onload the kernelmodul
apt install nvidia-driver-525
If you do this, it is a good idea to stop X.
Or use the “ubuntu-drivers” utility.
Anyone tried the brand new 535.98 already?
Amazing. I just tried it. It works!! No more flickering !! :)
I set the Powermizer to auto, and everything is fine.
Thanks nvidia !
No luck with 535.98 :( Still got random flickering specially with Firefox opened… maybe I need to remove nvidia_drm.modeset=1 from grub?

Im using the PC already 2 days fully, i don’t see any issue on mine. Also played a game.
Im not using the nvidia_drm=1 . Just fresh installed the driver, nothing else.
Powermizer is set also to Auto.

Just remove nvidia_drm.modset=1 from grub and it seems that flickering has gone away!
Update: Sorry, flickering is present but with lower frequency :-/
Flickering not solved for me.

Same here the issue still exists. I’ve got an ASUS XG27AQ and a RTX 2060. I’m using ArchLinux with Linux zen kernel. The drivers is at 535.98. I’m using X with KDE. My grub command line is GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="loglevel=3 resume=UUID=4461aafb-f9f2-431d-b01e-948248922a3f tsc=reliable quiet".
I tested the screen with a Steam Deck to be sure it wasn’t the screen and I couldn’t reproduce the issue with the Steam Deck. I also tried switching to older 525 drivers but the driver didn’t boot up properly, I’ll try maybe later with a live USB or something like that.
Still noticing the same issue, using a GTX 1660 Ti, on Manjaro (updated today) using 535.98 with kernel 6.4.9 on both X org and Wayland using nvidia_drm.modeset=1. I adjusted PowerMizer to both Auto and Adaptive on X org (doesn’t seem configurable on Wayland?) and I still noticed the issue. I haven’t tried Max Performance Mode.
I was facing this issue even on 535.98 using the nvidia-dkms package while using 6.1.46-1-lts kernel on arch linux. But that changed when I switched to nvidia-lts package instead. Now I almost get no flickers. Very rarely I see like a few flickers on the top portion of my screen, still running my monitor at 2560x1440 @ 144Hz refresh rate.
It’d be great if someone else can confirm if this is a one-off or a reproducible observation. Thanks.
Same issue here on 535.98 with a 1660. Downgrading to 525 fixes the issue but breaks multiple other things, so it isn’t really a solution.
According to release notes 535.104.05 should fix flicker issues. Will try soon.
Still flickers with 535.104, but rarely - once in ~10 mins.
GPU: GeForce RTX 2070
OS: CachyOS
Kernel: 6.4.11
Screen resolution: 3840x2160@60Hz
No kernel parameter nvidia_drm.modeset=1 set in grub.
A bit less flicker with 535.104.05 but it’s still there. Mint/Cinnamon 20.3, MSI RTX 4060 Ti, DP-connected 2560x1440@60 HP, kernel 5.15.0-76. nvidia_drm.modeset=1 is on.
Meanwhile I think it is the kernel. 6.2. On KDE Neon Ubuntu 22.04 with driver 535.86.05-0ubuntu0.22.04.1. Everything is perfect. (Geforce 4090)
