In fact for xorg/kernel, I mean such big packages, there are quite a
few bug reports in the bug tracker, and a few questions in our forum,
which are a good signal in my opinion.

Probably by not running an NTP daemon and having your system clock

According to pkgstats extra/nvidia is used by 55.52% of submitting users.
Pretty large group to discount out of hand IMHO.
