Xid 109 : “CTX SWITCH TIMEOUT” Nvidia driver 595.45 broken - Forced to use 590.44.01 - RTX5060ti 16gb

Hello, I’m in trouble with The Last of Us Part 2 to run well on medium and high settings. What happens is that first 30 minutes everything’s fine but then the game freeze when Ellie is going outside for the first time. I can still access to desktop so I can kill the process. According to Claude, I experience a Xid 109 : “CTX SWITCH TIMEOUT” bug. He also helped me to generate a log that I attached to this post. I’ve tried main proton versions, Steam launcher and Lutris launcher but nothing worked. Here are my specs :

KDE Plasma Version: 6.6.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.23.0
Qt Version: 6.10.2
Kernel Version: 6.17.7-ba28.fc43.x86_64 (64-bit)

I made my first steps on Linux 2 weeks ago so I’m not really confident in what to do next to find a solution but according to Claude, this is due to the latest Nvidia drivers.

I first published this issue in Bazzite Discord and people around there told me to report in Nvidia forum as it is related to drivers.

First edit : I have found the solution to rebase to bazzite-nvidia-open:stable-43.20251210.1 with Nvidia Drivers 580.95.05 and everything runs smoothly.
