Bug Description
I have nvidia drivers to use the secondary GPU. I've notice that, probably due to kernel upgrades, the module doesn't get rebuilt for the new kernel. The "additional drivers" tool shows it as being installed (see screenshot.)
$ lsmod | grep nvi
$
$ nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
If I use the additional drivers tool to go to an old version and back to a new one, it starts working again for a while.
