Hi everyone.
Broken Nvidia files have become such a problem. I'm not able to install anything until this is fixed. Hope you can help me.
It started when I tied to change the video driver from 390 to 304 in Software & Updates - Additional Drivers.
This is what I see every time I install:
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libnvidia-ifr1-390 : Depends: libnvidia-gl-390 but it is not going to be installed
libnvidia-ifr1-390:i386 : Depends: libnvidia-gl-390:i386 but it is not going to be installed
nvidia-driver-390 : Depends: libnvidia-gl-390 (= 390.132-0ubuntu0.18.04.1) but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: libnvidia-gl-390:i386 (= 390.132-0ubuntu0.18.04.1)
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
I have spent over a day on it to no avail.
I have try many different things like:
sudo apt --fix-broken install
sudo apt update --fix-missing
sudo apt install -f
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo dpkg -l | grep ^..r
sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove--reinstreq
sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/lock
sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock
sudo apt clean
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --reinstal
sudo apt-get -f install
Thanks for your help.
