Hi Thanks for the update.

After installing nvidia-430, I'm able to boot to gui, but I'm greeted
with this message when I try to run steam (which I have set to autostart
on boot)

You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run:
libGL.so.1

So, I power down, wait a bit and reboot just to double check ... see
same error, click ok

do so googling, find this:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/221410/discussions/0/1736635023062287934/
suggestions there don't help.

try to run Steam anyway and I get this:


OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering, which may cause performance 
problems.

so, I reinstall nvidia-418 and reboot... and steam works again. Hope that helps.

Title:
  nvidia-430 amd64 430.64=0ubuntu0~gpu14.04.1 broke xwindows on Ubuntu
  14.04

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-384 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  when I did apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade, I saw that
  nvidia-430 package had the version 64 update that was just released a
  few days ago.

  After installing it, my system wouldn't boot to xwindows.
  Failsafe boot to gui wouldn't work either

  The error messages looked similar to this bug report for nvidia drivers:
  
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390/+bug/1752053

  Here's what my xorg.[0,failsafe].log showed:

  [    43.645] (++) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.failsafe.log", Time: Mon Jul 13 
18:41:16 2020
  [    43.645] (++) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe"
  [    43.645] (==) Using system config directory "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d"
  [    43.645] Parse error on line 7 of section OutputClass in file

      "OutputClass" is not a valid section name.

  [    43.645] (EE)
  Fatal server error:
  [    43.645] (EE) no screens found(EE)

  
  I have a *directory* named what the file is looking for (at least now after I 
downgraded nvidia...)

  here is the contents:

  /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf# cat 
nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf
  # This xorg.conf.d configuration snippet configures the X server to
  # automatically load the nvidia X driver when it detects a device driven by 
the
  # nvidia-drm.ko kernel module.  Please note that this only works on Linux 
kernels
  # version 3.9 or higher with CONFIG_DRM enabled, and only if the nvidia-drm.ko
  # kernel module is loaded before the X server is started.

  Section "OutputClass"
      Identifier     "nvidia"
      MatchDriver    "nvidia-drm"
      Driver         "nvidia"
  EndSection

  
  basically, in the progress of filing this bug report, I downgraded to 
nvidia-418 and my system was about to boot again.

  To me, that says that nvidia-430.64 at least on Ubuntu 14.04 has a
  regression
