[Slackbuilds-users] zoom-linux crash

[Kevin McCormick]

Further information: removed the nvidia-kernel and nvidia-driver
packages(440.59) and xf86-video-nouveau-blacklist package.  Now
zoom-linux and kde seem to run fine.  Problem is display quality is far
lower than when nvidia was installed.  Apparently, xorg was unloading
nvidia and loading nouveau regardless of blacklist, shown in Xorg.0.log,
but the nvidia libraries are so much better.  When I used
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-nvidia.conf there was a crash with X regardless
of window manager, so the issue is plainly using the wrong nvidia
driver.  When I tried to manually use the NVIDIA-Linux***.run program,
it claimed there was a kernel module present, so I halted at that
point.   The nvidia README lists possible library conflicts, which is a
problem for me.  How does one package the 418.1130 driver and is
nvidia-switch necessary?
