Hi:
In Debian, I can compile perfectly perfectly with the current kernel’s of Debian Buster/Sid.
But, when there comes the hour of doing it with DKMS, it does not leave me, as I would like doing it.
The case is, that if I do it it is DKMS and do with parameter ‘- not - unified-memory’ I have not even this problem, it works marvelously.
I do not remember how I it did a time behind, that exactly, it was when it had the kernel 4.x for above, that yes it was allowing it to me. And it could do without problems without ‘- not - unified-memory’.
With the Debian bundles there is no problem, but to hand yes.
I happen to you here when I it do with the kernel 4.16.7 compiled by me:

What I do not remember is, how to implement these things so that it me works, still looking and solving this problem. But with the Debian kernels there is neither any problem, nor fear to put the Nvidia driver.
To excuse because I have many things in mind as to be able to do this quite made work. I already will buy a new laptop one as soon as I trumped my this one.
Thank you very much whom did I answer.
