118 118  If the graphics server (X11 / Wayland) is not starting on a system with a NVIDIA graphics card (in particular an older one – in my case it was a GeForce 210), this might be caused by the switch from the proprietary NVIDIA driver to Nouveau, without some files of the proprietary NVIDIA driver having been removed correctly.

120 120  Support for the old 340 version of the NVIDIA driver ended a while ago, so this version of the driver has been removed from Ubuntu 22.04. However, if this driver used to be install in Ubuntu 20.04 before the upgrade, it might still be installed after the upgrade and thus the configuration file `/etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-340_hybrid.conf` might still exist. This file will keep the open-source Nouveau driver from being loaded. This can typically be fixed by running `apt-get purge nvidia-340`.
