Ubuntu 18.04, 4.15.0-213-generic #224-Ubuntu SMP, Z97 MB. After installing the 550.120.run file, my RTX3070 and older GTX960 both go to 100% load and 100% fan speed and instantly overheat to 90C+ as soon as my F@H client starts.
I've tried downgrading the driver by booting Ubuntu in recovery mode and then using the root prompt to reinstall a downgraded driver. I've updated the Nvidia driver many, many times over the years with no issues.
However, after trying every fix shown online, I'm still met with the initial driver install error:
ERROR: An NVIDIA kernel module 'nvidia' appears to already be loaded in your ke$
ERROR Installation has failed.
