If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B.

This can happen in a time window between releasing new drivers and respining LRM modules with these drivers. A user can therefore select a driver that is DKMS only, which will break secure boot, as signed drivers are provided in LRM package. A fix is to introduce a flag '--include-dkms' that when not enabled will make u-d-c not show nvidia drivers that have no LRM [ Steps to reproduce ] 1. Add a PPA with nvidia-drivers that are not yet LRM prepared, in my case 2. Call 'ubuntu-drivers list' 3. observe the list of packages that is installed a typical list would llook like this: nvidia-driver-560-open, (kernel modules provided by nvidia-dkms-560-open) nvidia-driver-550, (kernel modules provided by linux-modules-nvidia-550-aws) nvidia-driver-535, (kernel modules provided by linux-modules-nvidia-535-aws) nvidia-driver-470, (kernel modules provided by linux-modules-nvidia-470-aws) First entry shows 'kernel modules provided by nvidia-dkms-560-open', while all the others have: 'kernel modules provided by linux-modules- nvidia-470-aws'. when a user chooses to install 560-open, by hand by providing the version or by using '--recommended', his system will have a broken Secure Boot as nvidia drivers are not signed. [ Test plan ] 1. simulate the issue by adding a PPa with a driver line that is not yet LRM prepare, in my case it's https://launchpad.net/~kuba-t-pawlak/+archive/ubuntu/nvidia-560 2. Call 'ubuntu-drivers list' with and without '--include-dkms' [ Expected result ] without '--include-dkms' the list of available drivers should not contain any entry that has (kernel modules provided by nvidia-dkms-YYY-ZZZ) in it, only the ones with (kernel modules provided by linux-modules-nvidia-XXX-YYY) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-drivers-common/+bug/2090924/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
