Hello, NVIDIA team! I upgraded to the latest Linux kernel to deal with heat issues on my brand-new laptop. Now the 430.40 driver won’t load (it was okay on kernel 4.15).
I uninstalled it with sudo apt remove --purge nvidia* and sudo apt autoremove, then rebooted, reinstalled it and after another reboot, nvidia-settings says this:
nvidia-settings
ERROR: NVIDIA driver is not loaded
ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system
(nvidia-settings:3131): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 12:20:24.662: g_object_unref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
** Message: 12:20:24.667: PRIME: Requires offloading
** Message: 12:20:24.667: PRIME: is it supported? yes
It then launches its GUI and allows me to select the PRIME card, but there’s nothing else. Screenshot: Pasteboard - Uploaded Image
modprobe nvidia says this:
thebrightside@SCHNITZELBOI:~$ sudo modprobe nvidia
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia': No such device
However, lspci says:

Any help will be greatly appreciated! I really hope we can find a solution to this.
