Right, that usually doesn't happen when you upgrade to a new version of the same driver (for example upgrading nvidia-331 from 331.19 to 331.25). However, when you are migrated to a different driver package, e.g. from nvidia-331 to nvidia-340, you will lose your settings, because they are different packages and they provide different alternatives (note: the alternatives are what allows you to enable or disable a driver). This, while unfortunate, is not a bug, and we cannot change it, due to the way alternatives work. -- 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
