  also, I'm not sure if it's connected but this is a line in journctl :

  NVIDIA devices. Please ensure that the NVIDIA device files
  (/dev/nvidia*) exist, and that user 117 has read and write permissions
  for those files. user 117 is nvidia-persistenced, the device files do
  exist, and it should be able to access them.
