Public bug reported:
1) Distro: Kubuntu 20.04
2) Package version: nvidia-driver-440 version
"440.82+really.440.64-0ubuntu6"
I have started the driver management from system settings, selected
"Using NVIDIA driver metapackage from nvidia-driver-440 (proprietary,
tested).
3) What I expected to happen: The proprietary driver should be
installed. OpenCL should work (e.g. for darktable).
4) What happened instead: An error window pops up. Title: "Error wh...
changes", content: "pk-client-error-quark: Error while installing package:
>>neues libnidia-gl-440 (313)".
The additional drivers selector still shows "Using X.ORg X server - Nouveau
display driver from xserver-xorg-nouveau (open source)", although this package
is NOT installed.
Checking with muon, it shows that some nvidia 440 related packages have been
installed, but nvidia-driver-440 is shown with status 'corrupt' ('Defekt' in
German). The packages libnvidia-ifr1-440 and libnvidia-ifr1-440 are also shown
with status 'corrupt'.
darktable shows OpenCL as being unavailable, even if the nvidia kernel modules
(nvidia, nvidia_uvm, nvidia_modeset, nvidia_drm modeset=1) have been loaded.
