[Bug 1242210] Re: Failed to install linux kernel

 

Cannot speak for Kubuntu but its probably the same, but in Ubuntu it
relates to jockey. But then jockey is a front end to manage certain
packages for binary drivers. I have no machine up with an nvidia card
right now, so I cannot look what package name it is exactly. And I am by
now a bit confused what exactly you have installed (but maybe it is
ubuntu and additionally the kubuntu desktop to switch between the two).
Two things you may be able to try are "jockey-text -l" (if that has
errors) or try "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^" (the ^ and the end
means its not a single package but a list). This should basically try to
install all packages that are required for an ubuntu install. In case
something is missing there.
