[SOLVED] Error requiring "manual intervention" while updating nvidiadr

AAVVIronAlex · 2024-11-16 07:20:25

First time encountering something like this. I really do not know what to do. A quick Google search did not bring up anything similar.

Error! nvidia/560.35.03: Missing the module source directory or the symbolic link pointing to it.
Manual intervention is required!
==> dkms remove --no-depmod nvidia/565.57.01 -k 6.11.6-arch1-1
==> depmod 6.11.6-arch1-1

Any idea how to fix this? Just delete and reinstall the drivers (would be the easiest option I guess).

Thanks for reading.

Bottom line.

I ran this and got the following:

earthmapspictures@H-E-R-A-N:~$ dkms remove nvidia/560.35.03 --all
Error! Could not locate dkms.conf file.
File: /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/560.35.03/source/dkms.conf does not exist.
Error! nvidia/560.35.03 is broken!
Missing the source directory or the symbolic link pointing to it.
Manual intervention is required!

Here are the four folders that were in the /var/lib/dkms/nvidia directory:

560.35.03  kernel-6.10.6-arch1-1-x86_64
565.57.01  kernel-6.11.8-arch1-2-x86_64

So I should remove the 560, right?
