https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=346244 has been blocking testing it with
the same system producing that comment, but I found another NV11 to put in an
Intel system and confirmed in both Tumbleweed and F22.

It seems no one anywhere wants to acknowledge this. Maybe KMS is the problem,
a question for the kernel mailing list?
