Hi everybody,
After a simple reboot, the NVIDIA-SMI is showing the error listed in the topic.
What I tried was the following ( Nvlinked Titan RTX Chips: NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn’t communicate with the NVIDIA driver - Graphics / Linux / Linux - NVIDIA Developer Forums:
user@alien grep nvidia /etc/modprobe.d/* /lib/modprobe.d/*
which give me an entry in the file blacklist-framebuffer.conf
I removed the following line in that file:
blacklist nvidiafb
then run :
user@alien sudo update-initramfs -u
user@alien sudo reboot
But the problem is still there.
Attached is the ** nvidia-bug-report output**

The machine is an Alienware aurore with Ubuntu 21.04 installed (GNU/Linux 5.11.0-34-generic x86_64)

If anyone knows what happened after that simple system restart (before it all worked perfectly), I would really appreciate the help! :)
Thank you!
