It is well known that the 340.108 driver has not been maintained by Nvidia for 
a few years now. Even the fervent Arch User Repository (AUR) community seems to 
have lost interest in updating those drivers with new patches. Even the Nouveau 
drivers do not work well, except on Opensuse Tumbleweed ;-)
I suggest to those who need to upgrade to new versions of Ubuntu or derivatives 
to first remove the existing drivers, install the upgrade to the new distro 
release and possibly reinstall the 340.108 drivers: in the case of black 
screens or malfunctions it will be easier to remove them without blocking the 
entire operating system.
The bravest can try to install the Debian Unstable drivers that seem to have 
been patched up to kernel 6.14. You can find the changelog here:
https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//non-free/n/nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-340xx/nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-340xx_340.108-25_changelog
If you succeed, please share the information and tutorial.
