Fixing NVIDIA 346 upgrade on Ubuntu 14.04LTS
Raw
nvidia-upgrade-fix
If you are upgrading from NVIDIA 340 to NVIDIA 346+ on Ubuntu 14.04LTS, do this to fix dkms build issues:
1. Remove the NVIDIA 340 dpkg configuration files after the upgrade:
sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/nvidia-340*
2. Reconfigure the newly upgraded driver:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-340
Now, dkms should build the relevant kernel modules (nvidia-346 and nvidia-346-uvm).
