Bug Description
Nvidia driver management in this release is obnoxiously overcomplicated. I have driver problems every single time I update my kernel -- which leads me to believe that I should either not use the Nvidia driver altogether (along with the three additional monitors I have connected) or switch to an operating system with better driver support.
