@ihler [and same comment may apply to others...] How have you ended up with -hwe kernel getting installed anyhow? Default behaviour of particular install iso image? Because clicked some option somewhere? Some sort of 'unintended/accident' and only later found the consequence of k5.8 auto-installing? Using a non-standard ubuntu install image? This situation will need investigating as we don't want similar mess occurring in another 6months when following HWE kernel goes into 18.04.3 and so-on!...
I'd prefer that 20.04.2 provided users option to install with kernel 5.4LTS and stay there for older hardware. I note, ubuntu-derivative LinuxMint have decided to do this and not by-default follow the HWE chain, but providing an initial -edge image with kernel 5.8 for those who really need it. May be better that those on older hardware move back to LTS 5.4 kernel and not keep following HWE? May be that legacy drivers can still be bought forward to further HWE kernels all the way to the final HWE series...? We will see, I guess, but I'd like to see these breakages/messes avoided ongoing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1910709 Title: DKMS linux-headers-5.8.0-34-generic update brokes nvidia-340 Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 source package in Focal: Confirmed Bug description: Last linux kernel update "linux-headers-5.8.0-34-generic" broke nvidia-340 driver and Desktop access.
