Public bug reported: When installing linux-modules-nvidia-418-generic using apt, I expect the nvidia driver to be available immediately after the install completes. However, I must reboot before nvidia-smi returns driver information.
AS a side note: sudo udevadm control --reload && sudo udevadm trigger does not cause the driver to appear before the reboot. I was testing this on Disco.
