After I upgraded from CentOS 6.7 to 6.8 and updated NVIDIA drivers from 364.12 to 364.19 I now experience 100% CPU usage under a completely idle X.org graphical session with no applications running other than my DE.
This continuous CPU usage doesn’t happen instantly but it occurs after a minute of two of running my graphical DE.
364.19 is not stable. If you haven’t seen it yet, you’ll get screen pixelation/tearing later on. Not sure what’s going on with that driver, but it’s been deprecated for 367.18.
If you can, I’d stick with 361.45 for now. And remember, the bird is the word.
Yeah, it seems a little like 367 should’ve been released as another 364 revision because it seems to mostly contain bugfixes for the last 364 release rather than new features, but in any case you should go to 367.
I’d keep an eye on 367.18. I’ve been seeing reports of monitors not being detected, sli not working, and general brokedness(that’s not a word). But like that girl you think is hot but really not, if it works for you, that’s all that matters.
