There are 2 words that can completely justify my "appaling lack of respect for
debian developers": hardware failure. And it happened not once, but twice.
Plus, the support I received from here is non existant in every troubleshooting
step I made.
Do you see any response now that the requested logs are at anyone's disposal?
Did you see anyone replying on how will I get those logs when I asked before?
Did you see any meaningful response to why did a card that had nothing to do
with the nvidia driver (the ati one) died after a few boots with 5.10.38/40?
No to all I guess. So, do you still call all that "support"? Because I
definitely don't. All I see is an "nvidia is bad" attitude which has no
foundations.
On the other hand, the only good thing all this... condition has caused is for
me to see how bad nouveau is compared to nvidia. I already knew it was bad
before that, but now I have experienced it and I can judge it from every
aspect.
Tomorrow marks 30 full days and ~100 boots without a single issue and that is
because I stayed on 5.10.28. I would try a newer kernel if I could afford a new
card. Unfortunately I don't. I will stick to it as much as I can, but, as I see
it, in the very end, I will probably upgrade straight to 5.13+ or move to arch.
The latter seems more probable btw.
Last but not least, for me, this issue remains of critical severity despite the
downgrade it got. And I am sure if anyone of you faced the same you would have
a similar attitude.
Have a nice day.
p.s. In case anyone is wondering why arch and not some other distro like
opensuse or fedora or anything, the reason is simple. Arch, via aur, can still
provide me with nvidia 340, the other distros can't.
