I can confirm that this happens with the driver downloaded from NVIDIA. I had to fall back to the .90 driver to get it to work for all my NVS 315s (with dual DVI) running on 7.4 / 6.9.
Thanks. For reference, I did the same test. With the driver downloaded from NVIDIA the issues also occurs in my case.
I couldn't find any reports upstream at nvidia so am unsure if they are aware of the issue.
Where do you look for this at nvidia, in the community forums? Or is there another publicly available bug tracking system? (which I was unable to find)
There is an updated version 387.34 short-lived branch driver available in the elrepo testing repository that you could test to see whether the issue has been fixed in this latest release (only available for el7 currently).
Surprisingly, I couldn't reproduce the issue anymore. Therefore at first sight it seems to be fixed in the 387.34 driver.
I posted a question at nvidia anyway: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1028268/linux/nvidia-maximum-pixel-... (although I'm not sure it is the right place, still having some issues finding my way at nvidia.com, other suggestions or directions are welcome of course)
Will short-lived drivers ever make it into the official elrepo repository? Or will only the long-lived drivers be included in the official repository?
