Trixie and Nvidia proprietary drivers
Hi,
After installing updates this morning, my Debian Trixie, KDE X11 installation hangs while loading Trixie with Nvidia proprietary drivers as packaged with Debian Trixie (the lockup is before the logon screen appears).
My Nvidia GPU is a RTX 2070. Intel i5 processor.
I did a reboot and logged in maintenance mode, removed the Nvidia drivers (" # apt purge nvidia* ") which allowed me to log in with Nouveau drivers.
When I reinstalled the proprietary Nvidia drivers I had the same issue of the boot process hanging, and had to go back to Nouveau drivers. Which I am currently using.
I am wondering if anyone else has experience this issue?
I expect if I wait long enough someone will have resolved the issue.
I am so curious if and when Debian Trixie will be packaged with the Nvidia stable version of the NVIDIA 565.77 drivers? I am looking forward to this, also hoping they are introduced in Debian Bookworm, now that the drivers are 'stable'. My guess is that KDE Plasma 6 will work well with Wayland using these drivers.

NVIDIA released today NVIDIA 565.77 as the first stable version of the
NVIDIA 565 graphics driver series for Linux, FreeBSD, and Solaris
systems with various improvements and multiple bug fixes.
George.
