After the update to the nvidia drivers 378.13 I can't start gnome. Looking into journalctl -k I see:

Have you maybe updated Arch and did an suspend to disk? You have segfault with libgtk3. Have you tried to reinstall nvidia driver, than linux kernel and did a update of initramfs by mkinitcpio -p linux? Had the same problem with my desktop and QT5 with this driver for nvidia. Reinstalled again both of them and did mkinitcpio - works.

polslinux · 2017-02-18 17:16:48

Yep, I tried to reinstall gtk3, linux, linux-headers, nvidia-* and got the same error
with 375.26 I don't have any problem...uff

Same problem with segfalt standalone KODI, with 375.26 it works ok, downgraded for now.

I managed to fix it for myself by commenting out everything in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf. I think the problem was that wrong glx module was being loaded by xorg. Because I have intel 530 and nvidia gpu, but in /etc/X11/xorg.conf have specified to only use intel gpu. But after upgrade I noticed that libglx provided by nvidia was being used (that was not the case before the upgrade). I see this in output of "journalctl -x | grep xorg" before the fix:
