GTX 970: Nvidia drivers not working on Ubuntu 21.10, only llvmpipe

Graphics / Linux Linux

Hello, a few days ago, after booting my computer, the screen is suddenly not able to handle more than 1024x768 resolution and running only llvmpipe graphic driver.
I’ve tried almost everything mentioned here.
Secure Boot disabled. Driver reinstall, old versions, … nothing worked.

nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn’t communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

nvidia-settings
ERROR: NVIDIA driver is not loaded
ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system
(nvidia-settings:8941): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 09:21:44.187: g_object_unref: assertion ‘G_IS_OBJECT (object)’ failed

uname -r

Thank you!

This looks like you installed a kernel built for 22.04 which headers package is incompatible so the nvidia driver can’t be built.
Please switch back to the stock kernel or use the liquorix ppa if you need a newer one.
