Additionally to the previous comment, I tried to remove the nvidia- common package (as the computer I'm working on is ATI-based). Apt-file confirms that the script is part of nvidia-common:
$ apt-file search /etc/kernel/postinst.d/nvidia-common nvidia-common: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/nvidia-common But the problem remains even after removing said package: $ sudo apt-get remove nvidia-common Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages will be REMOVED: nvidia-common 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded. After this operation, 139kB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue [Y/n]? (Reading database ... 218813 files and directories currently installed.)
