Hello I am trying to install the official nvidia driver for my Ubuntu 18.04.The error I get is :
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libnvidia-ifr1-390 : Depends: libnvidia-gl-390 but it is not going to be installed
libnvidia-ifr1-390:i386 : Depends: libnvidia-gl-390:i386 but it is not going to be installed
nvidia-390 : Depends: nvidia-driver-390 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
After I run apt --fix-broken install as said , and gives me:
