Now, I am experiencing a problem with the "nvidia-driver-195.36.15". None of the 'opengl' screen savers worked. Examining the Xorg log showed an error message that the nvidia opengl module was not loading. I therefore did an R&R on the port. I rebooted the system and then attempted to start KDE. I was greeted with this error message: NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (No such file or directory ).
