About 2 weeks ago, I got error message below. It was NVIDIA Graphic driver caused below the broken package problem. I think some people still face on this problem, so I posted how to fix problem. Luckily, this error message show the solution for this problem. I simply follow the solution and I got my Ubuntu work normally again. Please follow steps below to solve this problem if you do not know what to do.
I also got package broken sign looks like a stop sign on street on the top right corner of my Ubuntu Desktop.
Ubuntu shows this error sign when the package breaks.
Above error message described the solution of this error. Please read the first paragraph of the error message. You see it, “Furthermore run following command in a Terminal apt-get install -f.” This means that you open terminal run “apt-get install -f.” That’s it
Press Ctrl + Alt + t to open a terminal, run apt-get install -f.
Then, Ubuntu started correcting package. Press ‘y’ to install the upgrade version of NVIDIA graphic driver.
Reboot Ubuntu after the installation: sudo reboot now
After the reboot, open a termial Ctrl + Alt + t and run driver command: nvidia-smi
Make sure that you have the update version of driver. Yes, I got the latest version of NVIDIA driver.
The update warning sign is gone now.
NVIDIA driver causes a broken package problem often. I got the easy solution for this error, but this kind of error is sometimes very hard to fix NVIDIA driver.
