On Kubuntu 22.04 with an RTX 30*0, you have to downgrade NVIDIA drivers to version 515 or the system won't boot. Has been like this since launch. This is especially annoying since if you want to install any other NVIDIA software, the installer will try to update the driver version and break the system again.

A friend of mine has a similar issue on Ubuntu where the system only boots 2 out of 3 times.

I also recall having similar issues almost every time when I installed systems with NVIDIA GPUs in the last decade.

i've been using 520 for quite a while on ubuntu 22; i don't have any reason to upgrade versions as everything works well enough.
