Non-gamer here simply looking to achieve a viable workstation setup.
With each successive driver release since the 550 series there’s a growing number of problems.
Currently tracking 4 known issues. To summarize, ordered by subjective severity, from lowest to highest:
Use-after free error in 570 driver. Needs to be addressed, but low impact with no crash.
Chrome/Electron VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER errors at launch. I don’t care about this one as I use neither software/platform.
GTK4 application tooltips and popover dialogs are stretched/distorted/frozen. This affects the GL and NGL renderers for GTK4 apps and is wildly annoying.
GTK4 apps background CPU usage and application crash-on-exit with Vulkan renderer. This is a showstopper for using the default Vulkan GTK4 renderer.
Using this roundup topic for myself to organize, track, and update the overall status of issues I’m facing for each successive driver release.
I’ve provided numerous nVidia bug reports, GDB backtraces, etc. where applicable, and will also continue providing feedback on the individual issue threads as well as driver-release-specific feedback topic threads.
