GeForce 1050Ti problems with recent drivers

[letonga]

On my kids gentoo box nvidia drivers fail to load after driver update.
It has EVGA 1050Ti. The last known working driver is 396.54, all more recent drivers will fail to load, dmesg saying:
udevd[1877]: worker [1940] /module/nvidia is taking a long time.
It's a plain desktop PC, not an optimus sort of thing
