I've also tested kernel 4.4.111 and it also works with nvidia-340 and in the article which I attached in the previous comment it says that 4.4, 4.9 and 4.14 are all updated with security patches...

The reason the 4.9 kernel works is because Meltdown fixes haven't been applied to it yet. ** Description changed: Laptops like my Thinkpad W510 cannot use newer drivers than nvidia-340 because support for their old GPU was dropped in newer revisions.

I've found appropriate solution for this problem (if you want to continue use nvidia-340 driver): - just install 4.9 kernel (or 4.14 if you need newer kernel) and problem solved. On kernel 4.9 nvidia-340 module build process passed without any problems. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1742449 Title: nvidia-340.104 dkms fails to build against 4.13.0-26 Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Laptops like my Thinkpad W510 cannot use newer drivers than nvidia-340 because support for their old GPU was dropped in newer revisions.
