Description:
Cant start X server on NVIDIA card with NVIDIA drivers.
Temporary solution is to use xf86-video-nv but its without 3D acceleration.
Note: noveau drivers make me Fluxbox 100% CPU usage...

When i add Option "IgnoreABI" "True" to xorg.conf the NVIDIA driver is starting but my fan is going too fast ( 100% of speed )


Additional info:
xorg log file attached


Steps to reproduce:
Just upgrade your system to newer version with pacman -Syu, and reboot machine.. ( if you are using NVIDIA drivers and NVIDIA card )
   xorg.log (6.7 KiB)
This task depends upon

we know that nvidia doesn't support that version, that's why is in testing and we are waiting for official support before moving it into extra

This is extremly unstable package ( Xorg or NVIDIA ) and it shouldn't be in repository...
