Black screen when resuming from suspend (Mageia 5, GTX970, driver 352.30)

Graphics / Linux Linux

The system can’t resume from suspend, there’s only a black screen.
I can’t change to another text session neither reboot, just power off the system from the front button.

The problem began after I changed my old GPU (7950GT) to the new one (GTX 970), before I suspended without issue.

P.S: I don’t attach nvidia-bug-report.log because after resume, there’s no way to run the script.

I have the same problem with a simular setup, not found the fix yet but you can restart the xserver and login by holding down the “ALTGr” key + “Print Screen” key then hit “K” key.
EDIT UPDATE
Fixed by running the graphical card setup again in control center, this gives you the option of downloading + installing a proprietry driver which fixes the suspend problem.

Thanks for the tip, Kernow. ; - )

UPDATE
You didn’t had the proprietary driver already installed?
If so, what’s the difference in installing again via control center?

Regards.

Yes, but nothing changes…

In the “Addtional information” tab for driver downloads there’s this bit of info:

Seems to fit the OPs profile.

The problem is that this issue is there for me from the very release of the GTX 970 card…
