Unfortunately, the patch made no difference.

I've been looking at how the graphics on my laptop is set up, and have a bit of a worry about whether the firmware might
be playing a part in this problem. In order to offload video decoding to the NVidia TU117 GPU, it seems the scrubber
firmware must be available, but as far as I know,that has not been released by NVidia. To get it to work, I followed
what ubuntu have done and the scrubber in /lib/firmware/nvidia/tu117/nvdec/ is a symlink to
../../tu116/nvdev/scrubber.bin. That, of course, means that some of the firmware loaded is for a different card is being
loaded. I note that processing related to firmware is being changed in the patch. Might my set up be at the root of my
problem?

I'll have a fiddle an see what I can work out.
