Bug Description

Hi,

My system is working fine with 5.13.0-40-generic kernel and nvidia-driver-510...

Switching to 5.13.0-41 is messing something up...

Black screen after grub.

No graphic at all (black screen).

Further investigation show problems with the nvidia module :

----------------------------------
nvidia 0000:01:00.0: vgaarb: changed VGA decodes: olddecodes=none,decodes=none:owns=none
NVRM: The NVIDIA GPU 0000:01:00.0
NVRM: (PCI ID: 10de:1cb3) installed in this system has
NVRM: fallen off the bus and is not responding to commands.
nvidia: probe of 0000:01:00.0 failed with error -1
NVRM: The NVIDIA probe routine failed for 1 device(s).
NVRM: None of the NVIDIA devices were initialized.
nvidia-nvlink: Unregistered the Nvlink Core, major device number 507
----------------------------------

modules nvidia-* are present and installed :

----------------------------------
dkms status
nvidia, 510.73.05, 5.13.0-40-generic, x86_64: installed
nvidia, 510.73.05, 5.13.0-41-generic, x86_64: installed
----------------------------------

but they can't be modprobed :

-----------------------------------
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia': No such device
-----------------------------------

Reboot on the 5.13.0-40-generic solve the problem.

We are numerous users here to have the same behaviour...

I have the same problem. The nvidia drivers (version 470 in my case) don't load after upgrading to 5.13.0-41-generic. Reverting to 5.13.0-39-generic fixes the problem.

I did notice that -41 has a lot of changes from the "stable" impish kernel and that the modules loaded on my machine with -41 include lots of wmi and i915 stuff:

i915 2400256 1
i2c_algo_bit 16384 1 i915
drm_kms_helper 253952 1 i915
cec 53248 2 drm_kms_helper,i915
drm 557056 3 drm_kms_helper,i915
video 53248 2 dell_wmi,i915
wmi 32768 5 dell_wmi_sysman,dell_wmi,wmi_bmof,dell_smbios,dell_wmi_descriptor

which the -39 modules does not load. Black listing these modules does not fix the problem.

The 2 machines we are having issues with are

Dell Optiplex 7090 with a Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070

so I tried the 5.14.0-1038-oem kernel which fortunately fixes the problem for me.

Regards,

Ian G.

Same behavior here with 5.13.0-48, 3 desktops with 3060s.

Workaround: Install kernel 5.14 with `sudo apt install linux-oem-20.04d`

Possibly a duplicate and/or same root cause as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta-hwe-5.13/+bug/1974434
