I did a normal update using gui since I got a popup. It installed most stuff, but said it couldn't install everything. So I pressed partial installation, thinking I could install the rest after a restart. It didn't look that important the things that where not able to install.

After the restart it only showed on my main display, my side monitors where showing "no input". After a removing nvidia drivers and using the xorg drivers, and a reboot, it worked once again. After this I installed nvidia-driver-525 (proprietary, tested) again and it worked fine. After the first restart no commands, like nvtop or nvidia-smi worked. Had issues communicating with the drivers.

After reinstalling the nvidia drivers it still have issues connecting to the drivers. It do find my card, 1070, when I go to additional drivers and updates. And since I'm using a non IGPU cpu, it shows picture.

So my conclusion is that something went wrong during the update, or one of the now upgradable is very much needed. This is the packages that where not able, and still is unable to install:

    zellogi@zellogi-PC:~$ apt list --upgradable

update-notifier/jammy-updates 3.192.54.3 amd64 [upgradable from: 3.192.54]

No games or other gpu-workloads seems to work (media, transcoding and VMs). So question is, how do I continue? What info do you need to help me?

Edit: Adding command;

zellogi@zellogi-PC:~$ nvidia-settings

I'm not sure how to read this. Something failed.

  • Boot back into the previous Kernel, then run dkms status and see if the NVIDIA driver carried over into the new kernel update. There is a possibility that the update might have hiccuped and didn't carry over the driver. To install the existing driver into the Kernel version that it is missing from it is sudo dkms -m nvidia -v 525.78.01 -k 5.15.0-58-generic or whatever Kernel version it is missing from. – Terrance Jan 24 '23 at 14:32
  • @Terrance zellogi@zellogi-PC:~$ dkms status nvidia/525.78.01: added zellogi@zellogi-PC:~$ dkms -m nvidia -v 525.78.01 -k 5.15.0-58-generic Usage: /usr/sbin/dkms [action] [options] [action] = { add | remove | build | install | uninstall | match | autoinstall | mkdriverdisk | mktarball | ldtarball | mkrpm | mkkmp | mkdeb | mkdsc | mkbmdeb | status } [options]... Error! No action was specified. zellogi@zellogi-PC:~$ I also ran apt install -f and sudo dpkg --configure -a. To be sure nothing was missing, nothing found – Zellogi Jan 24 '23 at 14:53
  • Oops, My bad. I missed the word install. sudo dkms install -m nvidia -v 525.78.01 -k 5.15.0-58-generic – Terrance Jan 24 '23 at 14:54
  • Alright, now it works in 5.15. The 6.0.? is still having issues. Should I install it again from gui or is terminal safer? Do this remove the 6.. that went wrong? – Zellogi Jan 24 '23 at 15:08

    Yes, the driver wasn't tested in the 6.0 Kernel yet. When you run those Mainline Kernels you are running a risk of drivers and applications not working in them yet. But, you can file bugs with Launchpad so that they can track and fix them. I would recommend keeping with the Kernel that is defaulted in 22.04 which is still the 5.15 Kernel. You can try the command as above, but change the -k version to match the 6.0 Kernel installed, but there is no guarantee that it will work. – Terrance Jan 24 '23 at 15:25
  • Fair enough! Now that you say that I find it a bit weird that it tried to install the 6.0. But maybe I had some setting changed to make it find that. Thanks for all your help! :) – Zellogi Jan 24 '23 at 15:35
