--- Comment #31 from Carl Lucas <carl.lucas at gmail.com> ---
Hello,

Is there any solution in sight for this? I have this card, and I am affected by
this issue. I'm currently using the bandaid suggested by Ilia in Comment #29,
but obviously that's less than ideal, and I'd prefer to go back to using my
distro's stock kernel.

For reference, this particular card seems to have weird issues, even for mama
nVidia:
https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/959156/-quot-rminitadapter-failed-quot-with-370-23-but-367-35-works-fine/

No idea of the issue there is related at all, but it's another example of a
hard-to-track-down problem that affected ONLY this card. (I'm clucas84 in that
thread, btw - it was really frustrating at the time, because I couldn't get X
at all, since nvidia was busted, and nouveau was affected by this issue).

I'm happy to do any debugging work that you want, including replicating any of
the debug dumps already done by Luke Tidd if you think they will help, though I
am time-constrained to the weekends for that sort of thing.

Otherwise, I think I'll give up on this card and get a new one - it's served me
well, but it seems like it's a bit too quirky.

In any case, thank you very much for your time, and everyone's excellent work
on the nouveau driver!

Best,
Carl
