/ quote, copy and paste from my own comment #49 (bug 2023946) into this ongoing bug report (2024113): "Typing this from my phone rn, so bare with me please. I kept digging into this because it turns out that the computer that my wife uses also had a few Nvidia related issues recently, and she also has the Oracle and low latency kernel installed, even though she didn't install these manually, willingly or knowingly. There is a bunch of information about this out there: - https://www.reddit.com/r/Kubuntu/comments/14ndb7a/why_do_i_keep_getting_these_oracle_and_lowlatency/ - https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2482558 - https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2473057 - https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2483064 Going by the information at hand, it seems that this is indeed caused either by the Nvidia driver update in Ubuntu - or - it's a dependency from Virtualbox or Gnome Boxes, which I mentioned in the comments of the bug report further below. Two things here: a) having the kernel change like this from the default Ubuntu kernel to something from Oracle without any form of obvious user info or confirmation is something to worry about imo b) it seems to be tied to some of the gpu driver update issues that a few of us have been experiencing, and it has even nuked or rendered some systems unusable too, see posts above I haven't found the time to further diagnose my own Ubuntu + Nvidia related issues (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/2023776), and I don't see myself troubleshooting my wife's computer right now, so I leave this comment here just in case someone wants to open up a new or separate bug report about this, which I'll gladly upvote in order to provide whatever little information that I have right now. If there is already an ongoing bug report for this available, a point in the right direction is highly appreciated. Thanks!" / End of quote. The text above includes other related bug reports and also a few additional links. I recommend looking into this asap as it seems to be affecting a number of Nvidia, Virtualbox and Gnome Boxes users, causing all sorts of issues and even rendering some systems unbootable.
