@duht: See https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/nvidia-390xx-utils/#comment-836318 and check if it can help you as well.
@all: I am using an ancient desktop PC equipped with a GeForce GTX 560 card, and since kernel 5.16-rc4, there are no problems with suspend here.
Anyone having a complete broken xorg after last update? i'm getting a blinking cursor and only TTY access. The driver shows loaded lspci...
Thank you @jonathon.
I thought this bug is only related to this poorly supported nvidia-390xx driver in conjunction with newest xorg-server, like previous ABI bug (there is no problem with nouveau), but it looks like a general xserver issue. Thanks again.
Yes: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/73075 . Fix is imminent.
Also, an issue with Xorg isn't an issue with this package. Please use the forum for this sort of thing.
After upgrading xorg-server to v21.1.2 I can't resume my laptop from suspend.
On nouveau everything works fine.
Downgrading server to 21.1.1 resolves the problem so issue is related to nvidia-390xx driver and newest xorg-server.
I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem?
@jonathon 30-nvidia-ignoreabi.conf is not needed with 390.147
Thanks a lot @Scarlet and @Juggrnaut
I was have the error message:
primus: fatal: Bumblebee daemon reported: error: [XORG] (EE) NVIDIA: Use the -ignoreABI option to override this check.
The solution for me was edit the file /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia like the recommendation of @Juggrnaut and add in the Section "Device" zone, the follow lines:
Section "Device"
...
BusID "PCI:01:00:0"
Option "AllowExternalGpus" "true" # If the GPU is external
...
EndSection
And at the end of the file, add the follow section like the recommendation of @Scarlet:
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "IgnoreABI" "1"
EndSection
Or, just update your copy of nvidia-390xx-utils as it includes an override file.
For all those with that Xorg ABI error and having no /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
Search for a file called /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-server_flags.conf. If it does not exist yet, create it. Amend the file and paste the well-known contents there:
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "IgnoreABI" "1"
EndSection
Let's see if Nvidia indeed fixes that. According to https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2003589#p2003589, Nvidia stated it is supported and receives compat fixes until the end of 2022.

Please don't flag this package out-of-date unless a new version has been released by NVIDIA.

The DKMS package guidelines are explicit that
linux-headersshould not be a dependency of any DKMS package.As a concrete example of why including that as a hard dependency is a bad idea, what happens when
linuxis not an installed kernel?
