I recall a post sometime back referring to this same problem. In the post it said to remove any time widgets (digital clock .....), I removed them and the crash goes away. Running 11.3 kde 4.5.3 I went back to the 256.53 driver, for now until who ever is suppose to fix the issue gets it fixed. So can't say I've seen cpu usage issues. 256.53, works for me now, and If it's not broke, do not fix it :) Tony On 11/24/2010 06:41 AM, Alvin Beach wrote:
Hello all,
Has anyone been able to get the latest nvidia driver (260.19.21_k2.6.34.0_12-19.1) to work with KDE 4.5.3 from KDE:Release:45? I have another machine that is running KDE 4.4 and the new nvidia driver works fine.
This nvidia driver version has never worked for me. When I log in, plasma (or plasma-desktop) crashes and I am left with a black screen and a mouse cursor. I have been using ALT+F2 and running yast2 to revert to the older driver (256.53).
I believe this is a known issue for some time now. I just wanted to know if anyone was able to find a work around or know who/when this will be fixed? Thanks.
