Same thing happens on fresh install of 20.10 with 5.8.0-23-generic kernel.

After updating the nvidia drivers, the login screen stopped showing.
It helped to switch to the console ctrl + alt + f(1-9).
Completely removed everything related to nvidia drivers.
Reinstalled all drivers on a clean one.

Same problem here. It also affects: 5.8.0-34-generic
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS

Also, this is valid: https:/
In other words the shell bug is still there, however, fixing manually does not fix the problem, as some header problem stops the creation of the module.
Any alternative? nouveau is heating up my system.
Thanks in advance,

Don't know if this helps, but it started for me during a normal Ubuntu kernel update (5.8.0-34-generic). This morning, 5.8.0-36-generic was pushed down and still doesn't work.
I am still able to boot my system using 5.4.0-59-generic. I am using the manually installed Nvidia GK208B [GeForce GT 710] driver.
I'm assuming you guys can reach me so please do if I can provide any information.
Thanks!
TJust to report one more case, same here. This morning could not load video driver. In recovery mode upgraded system but video driver failed to compile in kernel 5.8. Booting normally with kernel 5.4.
Thanks.

Hi, i also got the issue of the last days.
Unfortunately my tries to fix it, doesn't works:
> 20.04 LTS/ 5.8.0-36-generic -> not able to boot
> 20.04 LTS/ 5.4.0-59-generic -> able to boot
I've tried to fix it via the recovery-mode of '5.8.0-36-generic'
-> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kelebek333/
The download seems to be ok, but '5.8.0-36-generic' is still not able to boot.
What have i done wrong, or are there some other advises?
Kind regards, Alex
