Tested `sudo apt install xserver-xorg-hwe-18.04` after activating proposed in the affected machine. Now working as intended. Rebooted, checked Xorg version with `sudo X -version` (X.Org X Server 1.20.1) and run `nvidia-smi` showing driver 390.77 version and installed cards without any issues.
So, this specific bug is fixed (I didn't test any further). ** Tags removed: verification-needed-bionic ** Tags added: verification-done-bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1815579 Title: Broken dependencies with nvidia-driver-390 and xserver-xorg-hwe-18.04 in bionic Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Bug description: I am trying to test new HWE stack from 18.10 in my destkop Ubuntu 18.04.1 (expected release 18.04.2 this week) and I have broken dependencies when installing `xserver-xorg-hwe-18.04` package with NVidia drivers: me@me-H110M-DS2:~$ sudo apt install xserver-xorg-hwe-18.04 xserver-xorg-video-nvidia-390 Reading package lists...
