Hello!

So, I have been struggling with nvidia and ubuntu for quite some time and so far I was hopeless until I found your comment on a post.

I would just like to understand better how to use it.

After updating using apt upgrade etc, I run your scripts?

Or I need to reboot and then do it? Well the graphic card stops working after an update but I can access a terminal.

But anyways, thanks for this and I think you are my salvation haha

Hi, you need to sign your drivers after an update to make them work again. To sign the drivers, you need to create a cryptographic key - that is described here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1023036/how-to-install-nvidia-driver-with-secure-boot-enabled
After you have obtained this key and enrolled it with mokutil, you can use that key to sign the driver. My script automates the process of signing the driver, which you will need to do after you made a kernel update. Normally this kernel update will require a reboot, so you will need to run the script from the command line after you rebooted. It is important that you run the script as root, otherwise it won't be able to sign the driver.
