$ ldd $(which ksysguard)
	<snipped a couple pages of stuff>
	libnvidia-tls.so.260.19.21 => not found
	libnvidia-glcore.so.260.19.21 => not found

$ ldd $(which fontmatrix)
	<snipped more stuff>
	libnvidia-tls.so.260.19.21 => not found
	libnvidia-glcore.so.260.19.21 => not found

And apparently root used to have the file:

[root at Devil8 /]# locate libnvidia-tls
/root/.local/share/Trash/files/libnvidia-tls.so.260.19.21
/root/.local/share/Trash/info/libnvidia-tls.so.260.19.21.trashinfo

[root at Devil8 /]# locate libnvidia-glcore
/root/.local/share/Trash/files/libnvidia-glcore.so.260.19.21
/root/.local/share/Trash/info/libnvidia-glcore.so.260.19.21.trashinfo

But evidently no more:

[root at Devil8 /]# find libnvidia-tls
find: `libnvidia-tls': No such file or directory
[root at Devil8 /]# find libnvidia-glcore
find: `libnvidia-glcore': No such file or directory

But I probably do have the files on backup media.
