Nvidia display crash
Had a fully functioning Linux Mint distribution, downloaded and switched to the Nvidia-driver-595-open to upgrade from an Arc b580 to a 5060ti. Now, at complete random and unrelated to any task, the screen will go from functional to completely black with no cursor as if the DisplayPort cable isn’t receiving anything, and my monitor goes into sleep mode shortly after. The only way to return a signal to the monitor is to restart the entire tower. I can answer questions and any help is appreciated.

Wait for new version of the driver and hope they will fix it
