I have a Zotac GTX 970. Works great. Apart from one issue, which seems to be common to this family of cards (it's not a monitor issue). If I power off the monitor (or my power settings switch it off, which I've now disabled) and then switch it back on, it doesn't regain the DP signal. This means I have to reboot the PC.
I can suspend the PC with the monitor still on (it goes into stand-by I think, which is fine), and bring it all back to life, display included. But if I accidentally knock the power switch, then I know I'm stuck, and there's no way out other than a reboot.
I've heard that this has been fixed in later versions of the vbios. I can find and download these. But I can't find a way to then flash the card in Linux. I don't have a Windows partition, though it may be worth me setting one up just for this. But I don't want to! So to save me from that, has anyone had any joy updating the bios on their Nvidia cards?
Of course, I could just go with HDMI, but I really want to beat this, and that socket on the monitor currently has a Pi connected to it (and there's no issue with getting my Pi desktop back up).
Thanks

Hope it helps.

That would have been my first suggestion but I couldn't find a link to a live cd version.

Out of interest, has anyone else had the DP - No Signal issue with their GTX970/980 cards?
