Hi NVIDIA,
Since 384.90-0ubuntu0.16.04.2 was released, EGL crashes on set up (eg when performing OpenGL operations like getting the OpenGL version), see here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-384/+bug/1731968
The same problem occurs on the recent 384.111 update, released to fix Spectre. See comment #5 here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-384/+bug/1741807
Some more details also described here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47415198/missing-gl-version-from-glewinit-using-egl/47527089#47527089
I have also tried the beta of 390.12 from here:
https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages
By doing the following:
sudo apt-get purge nvidia* sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install nvidia-390
But this also doesn't work.
Thanks, Saxon
