Haven't tested it with games yet. Using the CUDA binary blob

(Is there anybody else about that builds the latest stable kernel

Is the Pope Catholic? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

I don't think that you actually *build* the kernel because you
have not posted your kernel .config file which lists all of
the options that a builder would carefully select.

You likely just accept all the defaults, which means that your
kernel is quite sub-optimal.

So post your .config or it hasn't happened.

I used to, when I had laptop that needed a kernel patch. And then later
when I used kernels with Tux on Ice. But not in this decade any more.
