# Analysis: currently running kernel is actually purged >From message in DpkgTerminalLog.txt:
> WARNING: missing /lib/modules/4.4.0-7-generic I notice that I'm running uname -a Linux n551jk 4.4.0-7-generic #22-Ubuntu SMP Thu Feb 18 20:50:38 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Which packages have been removed in between (several days ago). # Summary So, it looks like the problem is: installing nVidia driver seemed to fail because running kernel has its packages purged. # Is it a suitable reason for failure? If driver requires a reboot to work, its install script should target the kernel that will be booted, not the currently running kernel, right? # Good practice? I regularly do: sudo apt-get update ; sudo aptitude upgrade Is is okay or is that a cause of trouble? Should I do something different?
