The kernel nvidia driver worked fine in 5.1. It only STOPPED working when I upgraded to 5.2 beta (and rebuilt and reinstalled the kernel driver).
This is a problem of 5.2 vs 5.1 ---- something changed that stopped it from working. Perhaps some libraries in 5.2 are no longer compatible with the nvidia kernel driver (since it is, fundamentally, a binary program --- one cannot recompile the core of it).
Perhaps it's a problem with AGP in 5.2. Slowing down AGP (to 1x) allows the nvidia driver to work but it still reboots the machine whenever I try to do anything that involves OpenGL...
Also, it's odd the the thing fails in such a strange manner (rebooting the machine without any error messages).
I had this with an ASUS mother board. Could not figure it out intill the board failed and I replaced the board.
