I have a laptop and then I like to connect a fairly large external 
monitor.  The setup sort of looks like this:

       +-------------------------+
       |                         |
       |                         |
       |                         |
       |                         |
       |                         |
       |                         |
       +-------------------------+
            +---------------+
            |               |
            |               |
            |               |
            |               |
            +---------------+

Anytime I do an update which changes the kernel I lose display to the
big external monitor.  To fix this I have to uninstall the nvidia-kernel 
and nvidia-driver packages and then go rebuild them from slackbuilds.

https://slackbuilds.org/repository/15.0/system/nvidia-kernel/
https://slackbuilds.org/repository/15.0/system/nvidia-driver/

The whole process can be rather tedious and cumbersome.  The monitor 
just says "Cannot detect HDMI signal" if I don`t have the nvidia-driver 
installed on the system.

Wondering if anyone else deals with this or has a greatly simplified 
solution (e.g. not even needing the nvida-driver to connect a monitor?)
