Hello,
This is an issue I’ve been experiencing for a while now. Driver versions more recent than 550.54.14 freeze my computer after I activate an external screen connected to the HDMI port. Here’s the script I’m using to activate the screen:
second_screen.txt (252 Bytes)
Sometimes the computer freezes immediately, sometimes it works normally for a while before freezing. It doesn’t freeze if I don’t activate the screen.
I noticed some backtraces leading to the drivers in dmesg
, which is how I’ve come to suspect that this is an issue with the drivers in the first place. The relevant backtraces are present in the nvidia-bug-report file.
I’ve been periodically attempting to upgrade the drivers to see if the issue is still present. Today I upgraded to 550.78 and it was still there. The bug report is generated while those drivers (along with kernel 6.9.3) are installed.
My fix so far has been to downgrade to drivers 550.54.14 and kernel 6.7.9 (the last one supporting that version of the drivers), which are working fine.
Unfortunately, nvidia-bug-report.sh
hanged when I tried to run it. I’m attaching the partial log, as well as the log generated with nvidia-bug-report.sh --safe-mode --extra-system-data
.
nvidia-bug-report.log.gz (1.2 KB)
nvidia-bug-report.log.safe.gz (127.6 KB)
Let me know if any additional information is necessary!
Best regards
