The latest kernel update didn't bump the ABI version, but I think there were some changes, and this might be the cause Please try to reinstall the latest version of the driver and report back, and they should work. Next time, use dkms to remove the module and rebuild it: sudo dkms remove nvidia-current/3xx.xx -k x.y.z sudo dkms install nvidia-currentx/3xx.xx -k x.y.z Kind regards, Luca Boccassi
