Hi. Installed the new firmware-nonfree 20221214-1 unstable and Debian still crashes after a few minutes/hours. The machine completely freezes/locks up. The graphic card is not defective, installed windows to test, played a few games, and had no issue in windows (I hate windows). Tried with Linux Mint with proprietary drivers, and no issues, works flawless, no crashes or issues in games with wine and games with a virtual machine. This is a SERIOUS problem and after a few months, the issue is not solved.

There were 2 new versions of the firmware then what you reported against and it could have been that your issue was fixed in the meantime. Now we know it was not. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/ log/nvidia actually only shows 1 commit in which new firmware was added, thus no update to existing ones, so if I had checked that before, I could've known. What remains is reporting this 'upstream' (to nvidia), but I don't know where that should be done. Hopefully someone else does. One reason I didn't check is that I never saw the additional information you did supply, so for completeness sake, I'll quote that below: On Sun, 23 Oct 2022 22:10:51 +0100 "Rui Dinis" <the.wingm...@gmail.com> wrote: > Here is some aditional information. > > I have a Nvidia Zotac 1080TI mini.
