NVIDIA
unable to install on new Dell Precision 7920 with Ubuntu 18.04
Hello all,
I am trying to install the data science stack on a brand new Dell Precision 7920, factory setup with Ubuntu 18.04 equipped with an Nvidia RTX600.
./data-science-stack setup-system
goes through its initial motions but then stops with this error message:
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: nvidia-driver-465 : Depends: nvidia-driver-470 but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
An attempt to manually install nvidia-driver-470 leads to the same error message.
Service at Dell reported information that nvidia-driver-470 were unstable under 18.04 and recommended upgrading the OS to 20.04 and take it from there.
Is that what you would recommend or can I somehow persuade the data-science-stack setup to accept the 465 driver?
Thanks for your input.
Best, Jens
