Hi, on 23.04 again nvidia driver and kernel problems... had the same issue back in march under 22.10 with funny flickering screens to total black and back just after an update and therefore a totally unusable system, and guess? no maintainer showed interest in that messed up situation, so out of luck after several weeks and one upgrade to 23.04 with a persistent problem (lmao seriously the problem survived the transition from 22.10 to 23.04) i had updated the nvidia driver to the "beta" 535 driver and had a usable system... Now just 3 months later there it is again the same friggin problem with flickering screens and unusable system... hope that this bug request will result in some kind of patch with workable kernel and driver... but i lost hope and go to check if there is some "new" "betastyle" nvidia driver package greater than 535 in hope that i have again a usable system for at least 3 months until the game starts again...
Seriously dear maintainers, take a deep breath, do a honest self assessment and recognize your abilities and accept them, afterwards you can implement then a rollback mechanism for updates in apt and snap so that we users haven't to suffer any more and can at least roll one update back to something more usable instead of hoping that you get that stuff right before the sun freezes... sorry but i'm really frustrated and disappointed with the overall situation regarding the nvidia drivers... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2025538 Title: Unrequested kernel update Status in linux-restricted-modules package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in linux-signed-nvidia-5.19 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-535 package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Running Kubuntu 22.04 LTS (lsb_release -a: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS) I was informed that new packages are available and I just hit update.
