Given that I already have nvidia-prime 8.16; Do you think that there might still a bug in that package? Maybe there is some conditions on my system that the fix did not account for?
Please post the output of
grep 10de /lib/udev/rules.d/*
so I can see the filenames.
I deleted the file I found under /lib/udev/rules.d that contained a reference to 10de (nvidia) as per instruction. It was never recreated, so a grep 10de /lib/udev/rules.d/* does not return any matches.
Anything in
/etc/udev/rules.d/
?
There’s 3 .rules files in /etc/udev/rules.d/ - but none that contains “10de”. The rules seems to be for chrome and snap.
/etc/udev/rules.d/* :
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7904 mars 4 08:10 70-snap.chromium.rules
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 58549 okt. 22 16:18 70-snap.snapd.rules

Hey all, I’m having a very similar problem and have tried most of the items in this thread. I’d love a second set of eyes on my machine. Was working just fine with a solid install of nvidia’s 440 driver. We rebooted the system and started to receive this message. Have reinstalled clean the nvidia drivers (now running 460), cuda software several times, and tried out a new kernel even. Please find attached our nvidia-bug-report.log.gz and hopefully help spot what I’ve missed. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Hopefully the below helps to answer some questions!

I re-ran nvidia-bug-report, and have re-attached here in case it’s got new data now that the compiler is different.

You also need to trigger dkms to compile the driver
sudo dkms install nvidia/460.32.03 --all
and afterwards check if the driver has status “installed”
dkms status
wradmin@emboleye:~$ sudo dkms install nvidia/460.32.03

Hi generix,
I also experienced the same problem after update today. Could you please have a look on my log file.
Thanks in advance!

Please check if you can manually load the modules:
sudo modprobe nvidia
Hi, unfortunately I also get almost the same problem. Nvidia is not working! I installed Kubuntu 20.04.2 with automated updating, my GPU is Geforce GTX 1060 6GB. Nvidia-smi is not working. After booting nothing happend, display does not show anything. I finally got managed to boot in recovery mode of GRUB and executed “nvidia-bug-report.sh”.
Thanks in advance for any suggestion!
nvidia-bug-report.log.gz (58.9 KB)
Thank you for your fast response!
sudo modprobe nvidia
returns:
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia': Key was rejected by service.
I tried also with the nvidia 450 driver. It doesn’t work as well; same problem.
I have run the sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall without success.
@a.javan.gh Please get a log from the previous boot (to black screen)
sudo journalctl -b-1 >journal.txt
and attach that.
@generix thanks for your reply. Just to be sure that everything is well in my PC i just installed latest fedora (v33) with nvidia driver (460.56), everything worked fine. I just reinstalled Ubunut 20.04.2 again, but still the same result. No login splash and no desktop. So i logged in termin (fn+f2) and started journalctl and nvidia-bug-report. Please find the results attached.
Btw journalctl -b-1 gives:
data from the specified boot (-1) is not available no such boot id in journal
After removing nvidia-driver with:
sudo apt remove --purge '^nvidia-.*'
I could login, but w/o nvidia :(.
Is something wrong with the latest ubuntu version?
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance

Many users are running into this since a few days, this must be some weird Ubuntu bug introduced with an update. It’s always the same issue, as soon as the nvidia driver is installed, Gnome is not even trying to start. No error is ever logged. Please check if X starts up when changing to lightdm.
Overall, this has to be reported to Ubuntu.
@generix thanks for your answer. After all now i just feel reassured, since i am not the only one with this weired issue. Btw i think it is not realy a Gnome problem, since i am actually using kubunut (kde-version of ubuntu).
