I just upgraded my nvidia driver and kernel on tumbleweed and now my main monitor can’t go to 240hz without losing input. Am I the only one? It works fine on 60 and could work perfectly on 240hz before the update
Nvidia driver updates break things all the time. Just rollback and wait a few weeks before you try updating again.

No they don’t.
Which distro and GPU? I’ve had a terrible experience with my 1070 Ti across Windows, kubuntu and arch and I didn’t even try Wayland.
The new kernel driver 545 is constantly throwing error on cold boot. It will reach a workable desktop though.
If I reboot after the cold boot, the driver loads normally without error.
This is the first time I see information at startup about the nVidia driver loading.
Edit: I’ll just buy a AMD card next time and be done with this crap.
Also on a side note, I can’t even logon to a Wayland session, like ever. The desktop is black with only the cursor and after a couple of seconds Kwin always crashes.
I’ll stay on x11 for now.
Open a X terminal, and type: nvidia-settings
Go to the screens menu, disable the monitor, accept, enable it again and accept…
Happened on mines, a 200Hz one and it worked!
