existing level of 304 and 340 work fine, so why not include in 4.15 as is? 4.15

The problem here is that nvidia drop maintining 304.x, so they will not update
the 304 driver with the kernel 4.15 standard. Currently there are some patches
that fix the issue but in the future we don't know.
Remember that nvidia304 is propietary and thus w/o nvidia there is no much we

As others report, this has now happened with two attempted updates to kernel

In one case the updater reported errors as it tried to load the update but then
improperly ignored the errors and the update - known to be wrong - was then
finalized and grub was updated to use the known wrong

I've encountered this bug on the past TWO kernel updates of my Xubuntu
16.04.4 (now .5) system that uses an Nvidia card. Initially I found that
falling back to the previous kernel was a satisfactory workaround. This
morning, I tried using the "Additional drivers" system setting to change

A 'backport' of "nvidia-340_340.106-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb" from Bionic should do
the trick as this is fixed by NVidia in nvidia-340.106:

I have hardware (nVidia GeForce 8400M GS) for a runtime test.
The card is supported upstream by the 340.x branch until 2019 [1].

that they resolved the problem [2].
The patch is available and packaged for Ubuntu,
This bug started to show up in Xenial with linux-generic-hwe-16.04, and
not just linux-generic-hwe-16.04-edge, as the former was updated to

Not an authority, but I don't think it will be fixed. Patch and compile
the driver as explained in the link from comment #13 and then use any
kernel you like.

Downgrading the kernel is sufficient too, aka if you boot with kernel
version 4.13.0 through GRUB, and then remove everything related to
4.15.0, the driver will work fine.
There was a 340 issue with the 4.13 kernel update too back in January,
and it was fixed in a couple of days
