I can't find a solution to my problem. I can't install the latest nvidia driver on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 15 Gaming) with Ubuntu 18.04. I always have that error message :

The following packages have unmet dependencies.

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

  • Please try running sudo dpkg --configure -a && sudo apt update --fix-missing && sudo apt install -f && sudo apt full-upgrade first then try installing the driver. – Raffa Aug 21 '19 at 23:01

Please, try fixing the broken packages and updating your system first by running the following command in the terminal:

sudo dpkg --configure -a && sudo apt update --fix-missing && sudo apt install -f && sudo apt full-upgrade

After that, please reboot your system and install your drivers using the ubuntu-drivers tool by running the following command in the terminal:

sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall

Then finally, please reboot your system.


If the first command fails to fix your broken packages, please follow the instructions in this answer then try installing your drivers afterwords.
