NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-440.44.run - NVIDIA(GPU-0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA GPU at

Looks like it worked. Here’s the root of the problem:

[   44.122684] NVRM: GPU 0000:01:00.0: Failed to copy vbios to system memory.
[   44.122788] NVRM: GPU 0000:01:00.0: RmInitAdapter failed! (0x30:0xffff:755)
[   44.122805] NVRM: GPU 0000:01:00.0: rm_init_adapter failed, device minor number 0

Unfortunately, there’s not much to go on there. This could be a system-level problem, so I’d recomend starting by checking with your laptop vendor to see if there’s an updated system BIOS for your laptop.
