I updated my graphics drivers from nvidia 470 to nvidia 560 due to issues running certain games. It's fixed my gaming issue but reintroduced the problem that kept me from updating for so long.
After setting my computer to "suspend," it wakes up to this screen on all monitors. I am unable to scroll up or type further commands, my only option is to reboot the machine.
- My graphics card is: NVIDIA Corporation GP104 [GeForce GTX 1070]
- Nvidia driver version: 560.35.03
- My desktop environment is Cinnamon X11. (This does not occur on Wayland, but there is no Cinnamon Wayland.)
I can't make heads or tails of this error screen. The best I can understand is the "Fixing recursive fault but reboot is required!" line. How can I get more information? Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? Thanks in advance.
Edit: It seems important to mention this is happening only on X11 (Pop default and Cinnamon), and not on Pop!_OS on Wayland.
does system76 not provide support for things like this?
Not unless you buy their hardware
it hadn't occurred to me that someone would use their distro w/o the hardware.
i bought from a system76 rival w their own distro too so that i can avoid situations like this and lemmy is teaching me how lazy and out of touch it's made me; op's smart to use a distro from a linux company that maintains its own distro with it's own paid developers because there's a stronger chance that there's an answer in their forum, compared to some obscure distro maintained by volunteers with day jobs.
I wish I could get a System76 PC. They're a bit pricey and I like the spec and build my own. Their cases are really nice, so one day I may just buy the case. I use POP OS on my builds and it is really nice. I'm excited to see the Cosmic DE get a full releas
there are cheaper alternatives; tuxedo and kfocus immediately come to mind.
