From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Pop!_OS crashes on suspend after updating to Nvidia 560 drivers. (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I updated my graphics drivers from nvidia 470 to nvidia 560 due to issues running certain games. It's fixed my gaming issue but reintroduced the problem that kept me from updating for so long.

After setting my computer to "suspend," it wakes up to this screen on all monitors. I am unable to scroll up or type further commands, my only option is to reboot the machine.

My graphics card is: NVIDIA Corporation GP104 [GeForce GTX 1070]
Nvidia driver version: 560.35.03
My desktop environment is Cinnamon X11. (This does not occur on Wayland, but there is no Cinnamon Wayland.)

I can't make heads or tails of this error screen. The best I can understand is the "Fixing recursive fault but reboot is required!" line. How can I get more information? Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? Thanks in advance.

Edit: It seems important to mention this is happening only on X11 (Pop default and Cinnamon), and not on Pop!_OS on Wayland.

I wish I could get a System76 PC. They're a bit pricey and I like the spec and build my own. Their cases are really nice, so one day I may just buy the case. I use POP OS on my builds and it is really nice. I'm excited to see the Cosmic DE get a full releas

there are cheaper alternatives; tuxedo and kfocus immediately come to mind.
