DetailsDescription:
Nvidia driver nvidia-361.28-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz prevents KDE5 from loading. Instead I get a simple xwindows window with a message saying KDE5 cannot load. I downgraded to nvidia-361.18-3 and KDE loads as usual. Additional info: * package version(s) nvidia-361.28-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz nvidia-libgl-361.28-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz nvidia-utils-361.28-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz * config and/or log files etc. I have a GeForce GTS-450 video card Steps to reproduce: Upgrade nvidia driver from 361.18-2 to 361.28-1. Reboot system. |

Reason for closing: Not a bug
Additional comments about closing: User reuested: Tried using nouveau which failed to start kde. Went back to nvidia. KDE then refused to log me in (always came back to the login screen). Finally, restored a backup and reapplied 361.28. KDE now starts. Might be an SSD filesystem issue.
