Description

This nvidia-current update provides the 390.77 driver from the
R390 longterm branch.

It provides the following fixes:
* Fixed a bug that could cause kernel panics when using Quadro SDI Capture
  hardware.
* Fixed a bug that caused kwin OpenGL compositing to crash when launching
  certain OpenGL applications.
* Fixed an intermittent crash when launching Vulkan applications.
* Fixed an intermittent crash when launching applications through Wine.
* Fixed a bug that caused the driver, in some low bandwidth DisplayPort
  configurations, to not implicitly enable display dithering. This
  resulted in visible banding.

* Fixed an intermittent hang of Vulkan applications running fullscreen when
  flipping is allowed.
* Removed informational messages that were printed by nvidia-modeset.ko
  whenever a GPU device was allocated or freed.

  certain OpenGL applications.

This update also fixes Vulkan support by installing a proper Vulkan ICD
