i can confirm this bug exists on 22.04.1 too, $ apt-cache show xserver-xorg-core | grep -E '(Package|Version|Provides)' Package: xserver-xorg-core Version: 2:21.1.3-2ubuntu2.5 Provides: xorg-input-abi-24, xorg-video-abi-25, xserver-xorg-video-modesetting Package: xserver-xorg-core Version: 2:21.1.3-2ubuntu2 Provides: xorg-input-abi-24, xorg-video-abi-25, xserver-xorg-video-modesetting
this shows that the abi-24 provider exists, but upon installing cuda 10.2 (the latest version which supports my gpu) the error below comes up. The following packages have unmet dependencies: xserver-xorg-video-nvidia-440 : Depends: xorg-video-abi-24 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-23 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-20 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-19 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-18 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-15 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-14 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-13 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-12 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-11 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-10 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-8 but it is not installable or xorg-video-abi-6.0 but it is not installable i'm downgrading to 20.04 for now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-510-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1999629 Title: xorg-core package does not provide xorg-video-abi under kinetic(22.10), which breaks Nvidia CUDA for graphics cards with graphics drivers version 510 and below Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-510 package in Ubuntu: New Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-510-server package in Ubuntu: New Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Description: Ubuntu 22.10 Release: 22.10 xserver-xorg-core: Installed: 2:21.1.4-2ubuntu1 Candidate: 2:21.1.4-2ubuntu1 Version table: *** 2:21.1.4-2ubuntu1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu kinetic/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Under Ubuntu 22, I was trying to make NVIDIA CUDA work, but I can't because the only compatible mix of CUDA and drivers results in a virtual dependency problem. The latest version of the nividia-drivers on my system is 510,for all packages newer than this the persistence daemon fails. No problem I suppose, I'll just install 510 and cuda-drivers-510. Only that doesn't work, because apparently though this package is installed it doesn't rprovide any of the xorg-video-abi virtual packages like it did in prior versions. sudo apt-get install cuda-drivers-510 Reading package lists...
