To be clear, nvidia was never removed, as far as I can tell, but it was installed and then nouveau selected as the default. So, the upgrade upgraded nvidia (which is fine), but then the default became nvidia again.
Not sure what should really happen in this case, or if maybe selecting nouveau should tear out all the nvidia bits. ** Summary changed: - Upgrade installs Nvidia + Upgrade doesn't respect proprietary driver selection -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to software-properties in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1797932 Title: Upgrade doesn't respect proprietary driver selection Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Upgraded Bionic to Cosmic with iso from 13/10. Prior to upgrading was using the nouveau driver. Had previously installed nvidia to test a recent SRU fix. Once I had tested the fix I had gone back to additional drivers to revert to nouveau. Attached 2 screenshots from during the b-c upgrade and post upgrade - I've now got nvidia installed once more.
