--- Comment #20 from Zamundaaa <[email protected]> ---
The cause sounds plausible enough, since KWin wouldn't yet have checked for=
 a
GPU reset after suspend, and there's no OpenGL or Vulkan event for a reset
having happened.
There is a relatively new udev event, but I'm not sure if the Nvidia driver
uses it. Ultimately though, if your GPU drops video memory just because of
suspend, your setup is broken.

erveVideoMemoryAllocations=3D1
Why?

> Nvidia is working on it
Judging by
https://community.kde.org/Distributions/Packaging_Recommendations#Proprieta=
ry_NVidia_driver_configuration,
it's done for new enough drivers. What version are you using?
