NVIDIA – 410.73 PM Gotcha, for Some..
I just encountered a problem installing the latest NVIDIA driver 410.73 on my ‘Main’ system, having successfully tested it on my ‘Test’ system:
........................ MODPOST 4 modules WARNING: "nv_pmops_suspend" [/home/rgadsdon/kernel/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-410.73/kernel/nvidia.ko] undefined!

It appears that NVIDIA now assume that everyone has power management enabled in their compiled kernel, although many (such as myself, on a ‘tower’ workstation) don’t need it.
Thanks to dinosaur_ on the NVIDIA Forums, there is a solution for this: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1043346/linux/nvidia-driver-v410-73-fails-to-build-functional-modules/
NVIDIA really should fix this, as it is wrong to make the assumption that non-laptops need all the PM functionality..
