Public bug reported: I am unsure where the problem stems, but changes since the 25th have caused my system to fail to initialise the Xorg display. The console remains operational for debugging. I am currently using ZFS snapshots to use the system as it was on the 25th of March 2020 because that is the last snapshot before this issue.
This bug was captured using ubuntu-bug when booted into the broken (i.e. not working) latest snapshot of my filesystem. The versions of packages from the not broken (i.e. correctly working) earlier snapshot of my filesystem are: libnvidia-cfg1-440:amd64 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-common-440 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-compute-440:amd64 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-compute-440:i386 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-decode-440:amd64 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-decode-440:i386 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-encode-440:amd64 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-encode-440:i386 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-fbc1-440:amd64 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-fbc1-440:i386 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-gl-440:amd64 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-gl-440:i386 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-ifr1-440:amd64 440.64-0ubuntu2 libnvidia-ifr1-440:i386 440.64-0ubuntu2 nvidia-compute-utils-440 440.64-0ubuntu2 nvidia-dkms-440 440.64-0ubuntu2 nvidia-driver-440 440.64-0ubuntu2 nvidia-kernel-common-440 440.64-0ubuntu2 nvidia-kernel-source-440 440.64-0ubuntu2 nvidia-prime 0.8.14 nvidia-settings 440.64-0ubuntu1 nvidia-utils-440 440.64-0ubuntu2 xserver-xorg-video-nvidia-440 440.64-0ubuntu2 $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu Focal Fossa (development branch) Release: 20.04 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+19ubuntu14 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-18.22-generic 5.4.24 Uname: Linux 5.4.0-18-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: zfs zunicode zavl icp zcommon znvpair nvidia_modeset nvidia .proc.driver.nvidia.gpus.0000.01.00.0: Error: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/0000:01:00.0' .proc.driver.nvidia.registry: Binary: "" .proc.driver.nvidia.suspend: suspend hibernate resume .proc.driver.nvidia.suspend_depth: default modeset uvm .proc.driver.nvidia.version: NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 440.64 Fri Feb 21 01:17:26 UTC 2020 GCC version: gcc version 9.3.0 (Ubuntu 9.3.0-3ubuntu1) ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu21 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Mar 30 15:49:12 2020 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: focal DistroVariant: ubuntu DkmsStatus: nvidia, 440.64, 5.4.0-18-generic, x86_64: installed ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2020-03-03 (26 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Alpha amd64 (20200303) MachineType: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
