I solved the 340.120 issue with kernel 4.13.0-26-generic Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS ....
Boot with an older kernel, download this patch: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1019362/fully-working-patch- for-nvidia-driver-340-102-compiler-installer-file-and-linux-kernel-4-12/ Rename and copy the patch in /usr/src/nvidia-340-340.102/patches/buildfix_kernel-4.12.patch Modified the dkms.conf by disable patch 4.9 & 4.10 and enable only patch 4.12. Part of the dkms.conf: .... #PATCH[0]="buildfix_kernel_4.9.patch" #PATCH[1]="buildfix_kernel_4.10.patch" PATCH[0]="buildfix_kernel_4.12.patch" #PATCH_MATCH[0]="^3.[8-9]" ....
