@ihler [and same comment may apply to others...] How have you ended up with -hwe kernel getting installed anyhow? Default behaviour of particular install iso image? Because clicked some option somewhere? Some sort of 'unintended/accident' and only later found the consequence of k5.8 auto-installing? Using a non-standard ubuntu install image? This situation will need investigating as we don't want similar mess occurring in another 6months when following HWE kernel goes into 18.04.3 and so-on!...
I'd prefer that 20.04.2 provided users option to install with kernel 5.4LTS and stay there for older hardware. I note, ubuntu-derivative LinuxMint have decided to do this and not by-default follow the HWE chain, but providing an initial -edge image with kernel 5.8 for those who really need it. May be better that those on older hardware move back to LTS 5.4 kernel and not keep following HWE? May be that legacy drivers can still be bought forward to further HWE kernels all the way to the final HWE series...? We will see, I guess, but I'd like to see these breakages/messes avoided ongoing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1910709 Title: DKMS linux-headers-5.8.0-34-generic update brokes nvidia-340 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-340/+bug/1910709/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
