mga7, x86_64
Alienware X51

Installed the seven packages and rebooted.  Various kmods rebuilt including nvidia390, went through a couple of loops before presenting login with the nouveau driver.

Intel Core i7-2600
NVIDIA GF114 [GeForce GTX 555]
Qualcomm Atheros AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter driver: ath9k

NFS shares mounted, virtualbox launching clients, Mate desktop running smoothly.
Stress tests and 2D graphics running OK.

CC: (none) => tarazed25

Installed all packages on Skylake Intel Core i9-7900X system.
Rebooted without any problems - nvidia, virtualbox and xtables-addons drivers rebuilt - X display driver switch to nouveau handled transparently.

glmark2 and other basic tests all ran fine and the desktop continues to work without issues.

After reboot, no obvious problems with odt, ods, xlsx, mp4, odb  files, different phote formats, Wifi is OK, as is access to remote NFS shares.

x86_64
Intel Core i7-4790, NVIDIA GM204 [GeForce GTX 970], 
Realtek RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet driver: r8169 

Ouch!  That did not go well at all.  At reboot the nvidia-current driver was rebuilt and then the system hung forever.
CtlAltDel rebooted the machine and the nvidia-current driver was rebuilt resulting in another hangup.  Logged in to a virtual console, 'su -' then XFdrake.
Chose the nouveau driver and restarted.  That booted successfully to the desktop, which is running normally.
