Pop!_OS crashes on suspend after updating to Nvidia 560 drivers.

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/30765479

I updated my graphics drivers from nvidia 470 to nvidia 560 due to issues running certain games. It’s fixed my gaming issue but reintroduced the problem that kept me from updating for so long.

After setting my computer to “suspend,” it wakes up to this screen on all monitors. I am unable to scroll up or type further commands, my only option is to reboot the machine.

My graphics card is: NVIDIA Corporation GP104 [GeForce GTX 1070]

Nvidia driver version: 560.35.03

My desktop environment is Cinnamon X11. (This does not occur on Wayland, but there is no Cinnamon Wayland.)

I can’t make heads or tails of this error screen. The best I can understand is the “Fixing recursive fault but reboot is required!” line. How can I get more information? Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? Thanks in advance.

Edit: It seems important to mention this is happening only on X11 (Pop default and Cinnamon), and not on Pop!_OS on Wayland.

I’m hesitant to swap DEs, XFCE has WM tweaks I really like (accessibility>hide title of windows when maximized) and on top of that I made my own ultra-minimal XFWM theme (frameless, 12px titlebar, works well for a rolled-up music player or watching a video in mpv looking like PiP).
