I tried installing 410.57 and afterwards X failed with some segfaults reported. I didnt try 410.48.
I have been using 390.77 and 396.54 both of which seem to work ok. |

YMMV, but at work, with a nvidia 1050Ti, the 410.57 drivers work fine.
at home, with older cards, I'm happily using the 390.87 ones. |
What are your graphics cards? 410.57 works fine with Pascal.

Maybe you guys should report it to NVIDIA: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/board/98/linux/ |
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
ViewSonic VX2776 Series (DP-0), Wacom Tech Cintiq 13HD (DVI-D-0) The display card also has a second dvi port and an HDMI port. The HDMI port I often use for a projector when doing lectures or meetings. I use a HDMI->VGA adaptor when the projector requires VGA. I usually have another monitor attached to that one when in the office. It is a luggable machine with an airline carryon sized case it can drop into along with the cables. I use the Wacom Cintiq with OpenBoard to do presentations. OpenBoard is a great bit of software but is it a bear to get running on Slackware as it requires like a zillion deps and some libraries from Ubuntu Debian Linux. I can annotate slides and draw graphs and pictures and move stuff around and add in files of any sort and save it all as .pdfs and with the stone cold reliability of Slackware. The other dvi port can be used with a 4th monitor for running something in the background like vlc playing music or some number crunching or long download, etc. I try to stay current with the latest Nvidia drivers because I hope that they help maintain the reliability of my setup. I am using the 390.87 driver now. |
If it were me I'd --uninstall the driver. Then see if
Code:
/usr/lib[64]/libGL.so.1.2 https://slackbuilds.org/repository/1...nvidia-driver/ Wow a Cintiq! I bet that is fun to use. |
A fresh install of slackware-64-current accepts the 410.57 driver without any problems.
I use the cintiq for lectures and meetings. it is very cool even though it is a simple 13 inch and not the high end professional artist model. My luggable machine has enough video ports to let me take good advantage of it in meetings. The openboard software allows saving presentations as podcast video or as .pdfs. The pdf feature is great for meetings because on can send out the screen notes as a reminder of what was decided (if anything) at the meeting. One can also sign .pdfs with it. |
Openboard sounds nice. I've seen people use something like that for Windows.
