Sorry if I'm not answering in the good place, or breaking protocol, I'm kinda new around here.
I found that this problem is actually caused by the repository, Ruixuan talking of cuda put me on the way. The cuda repo has its own version of the nvidia drivers, but only the amd64 libs, so when trying to install both archs, apt-get pulls the amd64 from the cuda repo, but the i386 from the graphics-drivers repo, and, as their version numbers don't match, it causes apt to see that as a dependency break. I'm sure that's easily fixable, but in the meantime, to install the 32-bit libraries and cuda, you have to : -apt-get purge cuda, the nvidia drivers and all nvidia libraries -remove the cuda repositories -install the driver and both architectures of the gl libraries, this should go without a hitch now that you don't have the cuda version in your repos. -re-add the cuda repo -install cuda-toolkit-<version> package (and NOT the "cuda" metapackage that also install the drivers, and would break everything down) I can't guarantee for you, but to me, everything worked well this way. The only problem is that, until the version number discrepancy is corrected in the cuda repo, presumably any careless upgrade would break it down, by "upgrading" to the libraries from the cuda repo, so you'd have to disable the cuda repo before each upgrade. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1862144 Title: cannot install i386 version along with amd64 version To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-440/+bug/1862144/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
