Affected: >= 535 and < 535.309.01 · >= 580 and < 580.159.03 · >= 595 and < 595.71.05

Fixed in: 535.309.01, 580.159.03, 595.71.05

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 535

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy gpu-display-driver || rpm -q gpu-display-driver || gpu-display-driver --version

2. UPGRADE to 535.309.01 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade gpu-display-driver

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade gpu-display-driver

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 535 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison gpu-display-driver sudo apt install gpu-display-driver=<VERSION_BEFORE_535> sudo apt-mark hold gpu-display-driver

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list gpu-display-driver sudo dnf downgrade gpu-display-driver-<VERSION_BEFORE_535> sudo dnf versionlock add gpu-display-driver

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
