[Bug 1824177] Re: dmesg spammed with nvidia-nvlink messages during install

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package casper - 1.405

---------------
casper (1.405) disco; urgency=medium

  [ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
  * scripts/casper-bottom/25adduser:
    - Make boot non-degraded, by clearing the lock. As otherwise
      systemd-sysusers fails and boots the system degraded on multi-lower
      subiquity images.

  [ Alberto Milone ]
  * scripts/casper-bottom/56override_nvidia_udev_rule:
    - Prevent udev from repeatedly trying to modprobe the nvidia modules
      and to start the relevant daemons on the live image (LP: #1824177).

Title:
  dmesg spammed with nvidia-nvlink messages during install

Status in casper package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-410 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I'm doing an install of Ubuntu 19.04 on an nVidia equipped laptop.
  I've selected the 3rd party driver option in ubiquity and now my dmesg
  is spammed 10x per second with this chunk. This appears to be slowing
  down the install.
