New minor Nvidia update crashes pc #3400
Comments
Same thing happened to me just now. Ran an update, Nvidia drivers updated, and the entire desktop froze when dkms started removing old packages. The update seemingly went fine, as This is Pop!_OS 22.04 as well, on an ASUS laptop with an Nvidia GPU. Not the first time this has happened, since it happens pretty much on every update.
