hey there, Theron and I had a chat privately and the workaround seems to be to
use the older Nvidia 470 driver.  I think what happened is that support to my
Optimus card was dropped in the 5xx series, as once I loaded this older
driver dmesg reported the card as detected and Xorg-headless no longer crashes.

i can share pkg's if you'd like, i'm hoping today, time permitting to submit a bug
report with diff to add a 470 flavor to nvidia-hybrid-graphics along with a
nvidia-secondary-driver-470 pkg.

cheers,
-pete
