What is more puzzling, is that we have probably over a thousand workstations running CentOS 7.5 with Nvidia cards using the proprietary driver and haven't seen any of the 'issues' listed - which are:

• Nvidia proprietary module doesn't work after upgrading to RHEL7.5
• No graphics after updating to RHEL7.5
• Desktop does not start after upgrading to RHEL7.5 with Nvidia graphics driver
• Black screen after installing Nvidia proprietary graphics module in RHEL7.5

We're using gdm which launches Mate

I am using the latest CentOS 7.5 gdm/GNOME with 390.30-2.el7 driver from cuda repo. Haven't seen any problem either. Chip is Quadro M2000M.
