SUMMARY This is regarding my laptop, a 2022 Asus ROG Strix G733CX Optimus graphics laptop running in discreet GPU Mode on Arch linux running kernel 6.10.2-273-tkg-eevdf (64-bit) Plasma falls back to "Zink Vulkan 1.3" as graphics processor when using latest NVIDIA Beta driver 560.28.03 suggesting that it is failing to access the native NVIDIA OpenGL Renderer. The current "New Feature" branch driver 555.58.02 reports "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Laptop GPU/PCIe/SSE2" which is what I would expect. I know it's a beta driver it could be an NVIDIA bug, but I'm reporting it here since it could be a change in NVIDIA driver stack that Plasma might need to react to. Occasionally on the beta driver the Plasma desktop will become non responsive, usually shortly after log in when it does happen. It is not a kernel panic as I'm able to get to a virtual terminal and reboot the system. I'm not experienced in how to give you an appropriate log to diagnose the issue, but will with guidance. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Install nvidia-beta-dkms (or nvidia-open-beta-dkms), nvidia-utils-beta. lib32-nvidia-utils-beta, nvidia-settings-beta opencl-nvidia-beta and lib32-opencl-nvidia-beta from the AUR on Arch Linux 2. Reboot 3.
