Fix confirmed on 2 very different machines both running Ubuntu 14.04 "Trusty" with the 3.13 kernel. Detailed notes:
AMD workstation with only a discrete nvidia GPU (nothing else) ==================================================== Synaptic complained about conflicts when selecting updated driver from trusty-proposed (something involving nvidia-libopencl1-* vs nvidia-opencl-icd-* IIRC). Installing through aptitude worked better. No further issues when rebooting, updating the kernel and rebooting again. Intel laptop running bumblebee ========================== Blank screen after updating. Solutions tried: (1) starting the kernel with nogpumanager and removing /etc/X11/xorg.conf generated by gpu-manager (2) removing the newly created file /etc/prime-discrete (3) sudo sed -i 's/-current/-346-updates/g' /etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf (4) adding lines for 340 and 346 to /etc/modprobe.d/bumblebee.conf Applying all of the above fixed the problem, and (1)-(3) without (4) didn't, so it's very likely that (4) is necessary. What I cannot tell is which of (1)-(3) are also necessary and which are optional.(*) Bottom line is that special precautions should be taken to prevent bumblebee from breaking when rolling this out. (*) I could of course figure that out by reverting the changes one-by- one, but this bug already robbed me of an outrageous amount of my time and all of my goodwill, so you're on your own. Thanks a lot for finally fixing it, though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1431753 Title: Nvidia binary driver FTBS due to DKMS layer violation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-331/+bug/1431753/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
