Dear Maintainer,

after installing the 'nvidia-alternative' package, selecting
' /usr/lib/nvidia/current ' instead of the previous selectected option
( /usr/lib/nvidia/tesla ) and rebooting solved the issue, recovering:


   - gtk desktop app
   - startup custom configuration with nvidia-settings on tweak tool (
   Gnome Shell / Xorg )


I'm not able to explain why this option was selected due I never used the
nvidia-alternatives app before.


This issue arise along with the last nvidia-settings upgrade some weeks ago.


Best Regards.
