I have not tried this myself, but it seems some Ubuntu users are having success using graysky's patches that I assume are the same as those here.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-340/+bug/1916640
That thread points to this link on editing xorg.conf https://launchpad.net/~kelebek333/+archive/ubuntu/nvidia-legacy
There also seems to be a patch ready to go for 5.12 http://rglinuxtech.com/?p=2896
Any brave folks want to give this a shot?
Confirming that none of the 5.11.x kernels work well for me with this driver on my machine (mid-2009 macbook pro with 9400M). I moved back to a 5.10 kernel (I had 5.10.16 handy) and that fixed my issue. To be clear, with this driver and a 5.11 kernel, I can start X11 just fine, however I'm having issues with libEGL. mpv can't play movies because a double free crash occurs:
free(): double free detected in tcache 2
Aborted (core dumped)

Doesn't work on 5.11 here too.
linux-5.11.14.arch1-1-x86_64 with nvidia-340xx 340.108-18 does not work for me (ga-p35-ds3, gtx260, sddm, plasma)
The driver works with kernel 5.11.13 on my ThinkPad T61p (gdm and plasma), not on my AMD desktop
"Anyone please can confirm are there troubles or not with this driver and linux 5.11.13.arch1-1" - yes, me, my Thinkpad R61 only works with this driver on lts-kernel
Anyone please can confirm are there troubles or not with this driver and linux 5.11.13.arch1-1
Today I have updated the system with pacman and I have Graphic mode again. I use XFCE and LXDM, now I can write the password and everything seems Ok, but when I open an application, window manager is not working and I don't have the windows controls.
I tried to execute xfwm4 or xfwm4 --replace but I get the error gtk-warning cannot open display:
With a ps xfwm4 process does not appear.
@tioguda you gave me such a great idea man!!
I completely disabled the DM, I changed the default target to multiuser.target (instead of graphical target) then configured a minimal .xinitrc to start properly the KDE and in the end I automatized startx to autostart after login and finally automatized login user with systemd.service!! Got rid off DMS for good!!
You Rule man! Keep it simple brothers!!
@leopseft @auriculaire I just trying to get the nvidia package work, on kernel 5.11.8 i was able to switch to nouveau maintaining the nvidia but after the upgrade and installing the lts kernel xinit can't start, i have sddm.
