[Touch-packages] [Bug 1750937] Re: 4.4.0-116 Kernel update on 2/21 breaks Nvidia drivers (on 14.04 and 16.04)

2018-02-26 Thread Mythological
Silvano (spaccabyte), if you never added that PPA (and the majority of
Ubuntu users will not have) then there is nothing to remove.  In that
case, you probably have the "standard" gcc and could just follow the
instructions at
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2385621=f41dc2da85d14b7d5854118ae4594254=13742673#post13742673
in post #7.  You may need to exit and restart Synaptic during the
process, if it won't let you reinstall the kernel after removing it.

I'm not sure.  If that works for anyone please let us know.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1750937] Re: 4.4.0-116 Kernel update on 2/21 breaks Nvidia drivers (on 14.04 and 16.04)

2018-02-23 Thread Mythological
John (earthspike), you said your version is

gcc-4.8.real (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.4) 4.8.4

but when I run gcc --version I get just

gcc (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.4) 4.8.4

The version number appears to be the same but instead of gcc-4.8.real I
only see gcc.  Is that a significant difference, or just something
related to different hardware perhaps?

The modinfo command does return the string shown above, so my question
is this, right now this machine is booted into the -112 kernel.  Can I
run those two "sudo dkms" while still in the -112 kernel, or does it
have to be booted into -116 first?  And also, if I do this, will it only
affect the -116 kernel?  In other words, if for some reason this doesn't
work, will it still be able to boot into -112 with no changes to the
nVidia graphics in that kernel?

2018-02-22 Thread Mythological
Kaan Akşit:  You are going down the same rabbit hole that I did and it
won't work, and will just mess up your system.  The problem is not the
nVidia driver, it's the kernel upgrade.  Go to the thread at
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2385621=13742281#post13742281
and you will see what you need to do.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1750937] Re: 4.4.0-116 Kernel update on 2/21 breaks Nvidia drivers (on 14.04 and 16.04)

2018-02-22 Thread Mythological
Bill Miller, I can ssh into the system and install packages - apt-get
still works, etc.  Right now the only thing I can't do is get into the
desktop; it shows a login screen but won't accept my password (even
though my password works fine in ssh).  I think it is because when I
tried to install the nVida Linux drivers it removed Noveau, and I can't
seem to get it back.

What I am not understanding is what you meant by "the -112" - I assume
you are talking about a version number or something, but of what?  I
went to that link but they are using Synaptic and I have no way to get
to that because I can't get into the desktop.  Also, unlike that guy, as
far as i know I did not "made the mistake of purging the functional
kernel" which means that the previous kernel is probably still around on
the hard drive, I just don't know how you would set it up to boot into
the previous kernel rather than the new kernel.

Rather than continue this discussion here I suggest we move it to
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2385621=13742281#post13742281
as this is probably not appropriate for the bug tracker, and I suspect
many others are affected by this and would like to find a solution.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1750937] Re: 14.04 Kernel update on 2/21 breaks Nvidia drivers

2018-02-22 Thread Mythological
One more to report, this one got my son's computer, an older Asrock
machine.  Uninstalling the nVidia drivers allowed booting into the
desktop but then when none of the available nVidia drivers worked we
made the mistake of trying to install the Linux driver from nVidia's
site.  Apparently somewhere in the process it uninstalled the Noveau
drivers and now we can't even log into the system except via ssh.

I then tried reinstalling the Noveau package xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
and it claims it cannot be installed because

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
xserver-xorg-video-nouveau : Depends: xorg-video-abi-15
 Depends: xserver-xorg-core (>= 2:1.14.99.902)
 Recommends: libgl1-mesa-dri (>= 9.0)

If I tried to reinstall the xorg/xserver stuff, no matter what I tried I
kept getting these:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
unity-control-center : Depends: libcheese-gtk23 (>= 3.4.0) but it is not going 
to be installed
   Depends: libcheese7 (>= 3.0.1) but it is not going to be 
installed
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by 
held packages.

But if I try to install those I get:

libcheese-gtk23 is already the newest version.
libcheese7 is already the newest version.

And if I tried to force install them, it showed that it is already
running libcheese-gtk23:amd64 (3.10.2-0ubuntu2) and libcheese7:amd64
(3.10.2-0ubuntu2) which are both higher versions than what xorg seems to
require, so I don't understand what is going on here.  Anyway, at this
point the system is pretty much totally broken as far as getting into
the desktop is concerned.

Is there any chance you can fix this and get a new kernel update out
very soon, like tonight or tomorrow?  Because if not, it looks like I
may have to reinstall from scratch, and even then I'm not entirely
certain I won't run into the exact same issue.
