Public bug reported: Currently, having different nvidia modules for the same kernel ABI is allowed. For example, both linux-modules-nvidia-450-5.4.0-66-generic and linux-modules-nvidia-460-5.4.0-66-generic can be installed at the same time. This can cause systems to boot using the wrong kernel modules.
A simple fix is to make the modules conflict/replace/provide a virtual package such as linux-modules-nvidia-5.4.0-66-generic. ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Alberto Milone (albertomilone) Status: In Progress ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: High Assignee: Alberto Milone (albertomilone) Status: In Progress ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: High Assignee: Alberto Milone (albertomilone) Status: In Progress ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Groovy) Importance: High Assignee: Alberto Milone (albertomilone) Status: In Progress ** Also affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Groovy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Bionic) Assignee: (unassigned) => Alberto Milone (albertomilone) ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Focal) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Focal) Assignee: (unassigned) => Alberto Milone (albertomilone) ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Groovy) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Groovy) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 (Ubuntu Groovy) Assignee: (unassigned) => Alberto Milone (albertomilone) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1918298 Title: Do not make it possible to have multiple nvidia kernel modules installed at the same time To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-460/+bug/1918298/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
