A 'backport' of "nvidia-340_340.106-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb" from Bionic should do the trick as this is fixed by NVidia in nvidia-340.106: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/130042/en-us "Release Highlights: Fixed a compatibility problem between the nvidia.ko's Page Attribute Table (PAT) support and the kernel Page Table Isolation (PTI) patches."
Forcing the installation of "nvidia-340_340.106-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb" from Bionic on Xenial seems to work: sudo dpkg -i --force-depends nvidia-340_340.106-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb This then needs a little massaging: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia-340/xorg /etc/alternatives/x86_64-linux-gnu_xorg_extra_modules sudo ln -s /etc/alternatives/x86_64-linux-gnu_xorg_extra_modules /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xorg/extra-modules And commenting out ModulePath "/usr/lib/nvidia-340/xorg" in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/nvidia-drm-outputclass-ubuntu.conf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-304 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1737750 Title: nvidia-graphics-drivers-304 304.137-0ubuntu2 ADT test failure with linux 4.15.0-1.2 [error: implicit declaration of function ‘init_timer’] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-304/+bug/1737750/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
