(solved/gelöst) nvidia-legacy-340xx update 340.104-2 broken!!

[michaa7]

English:

You will get an error message about nvidia-kernel-common (20151021+5) not having the right version number -> kernel modul not building. If you are bitten by this, downgrading will be APITA .

I needed to execute

Code Select Expand

# dpkg --configure -a --force-all to overcome configure conflicts.


Deutsch:

nvidia-legacy-340xx update 340.104-2 ist kaputt, es gibt eine fehlermeldung beim install dass nvidia-kernel-common (20151021+5) nicht die richtige versionsnummer besäße. Wenn ihr da schon reingestolpert seid kann ein downgrade kompliziert werden wegen konfigurationskonflikten.

Bei mir half nur ein

# dpkg --configure -a --force-all

I can confirm the problem with my VIDIA Corporation GK107M [GeForce GT 750M] [10de:0fe4] (rev a1) that is not working anymore.
Seems that with the last dist-upgrade the dkms package and also the dkms for nvidia was missing and now I can run gui only removing the /etc/xorg.conf file. KDE at boot up say that OpenGL 2 is not supported and it is missing the resto of plasma.I don't know if I have to use the legacy drivers but before the upgrade everything was working fine. Looking at xorg seems that doesn't detect any monitor.
I don't know what to do to get working my KDE as before :-/
PS: I run that commands with no luck
