Tested on AWS instance with 6.8.0-1024-aws installed and ubuntu-drivers- common = 1:0.9.7.6ubuntu3.2 installed from noble-proposed
1) for server driver testing call: ubuntu-drivers install --gpgpu 2) observer output searching for nvidia-headless-no-dkms- and linux-modules-nvidia- the list contains: nvidia-headless-no-dkms-570-server-open and linux- modules-nvidia-570-server-open-aws plus dependencies. for regression also test non-gpgpu install: 1) call call: ubuntu-drivers install 2) observer output searching for linux-modules- nvidia-kernel-common- the list contains linux-modules-nvidia-550-aws and nvidia-kernel-common-550 ** Tags removed: verification-needed-noble ** Tags added: verification-done-noble -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-drivers-common in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2083709 Title: fix install --gpgpu handling. Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Jammy: New Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Noble: Fix Committed Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Oracular: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Plucky: Fix Released Bug description: [ Impact ] install with --gpgpu is broken and no longer installs linux-modules-nvidia, only nvidia-driver-no-dkms-<series>. This makes the system unusable as the actual kernel module is not present but headless-no-dkms package will satisfy ubuntu-driver's dependency search so subsequent calls to install a driver will do nothing. [ Steps to reproduce ] 1. Call 'ubuntu-drivers install --gpgpu --recommended' 2. observe the list of packages that is installed [ Test plan ] 1. Install ubuntu-drivers on a machine with a modern NVIDIA card 2. Call 'ubuntu-drivers install --gpgpu --recommended' [ Expected result ] there should be nvidia-headless-no-dkms and linux-modules-nvidia- installed with all dependencies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-drivers-common/+bug/2083709/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
