xubuntu88dHello. I'm in Xubuntu. I have installed CUDA 9-0 and when reboot I got a black screen. I have entered in protected mode and I'm trying to get rif of nvidia driver. I cannot install noting because apt install stacks with this message: "You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies:  cuda-drivers : Depends: nvidia-396 (>= 396.26) but it is not going to be installed"21:55
xubuntu88dSomeone have any suggestion? If I try to "sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia" the same message appear21:57
nomenontry apt --fix-broken install22:03
xubuntu88dThank for answering. I got this: "Unpacking nvidia-396 (396.26-0ubuntu1) ... dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/nvidia-396_396.26-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb (--unpack):  trying to overwrite '/lib/udev/rules.d/71-nvidia.rules', which is also in package nvidia-kernel-common-390 390.67-0ubuntu0~gpu18.04.1 dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing:  /var/c22:08
mrkrampsxubuntu88d, you have to force overwriting this file22:09
mrkrampssudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/nvidia-396_396.26-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb22:10
mrkrampsfollowed by: sudo apt-get install -f22:11
xubuntu88dthank you. I will force the overwrite22:12
xubuntu88dmrkramps, I got some warning, but everthing went well with the overwriting.22:16
mrkrampsxubuntu88d, good … package manager should be back working22:17
xubuntu88dYes, yes, I just tried to install synaptic and it worked fine. I will reboot and hope I can enter the normal mode again. Thank you very much, mrkramps22:18
