    [SOLVED] Accidental delete of Nvidia drivers; how can I restore?

    Hi,

    Working now from my Mint partition, since the Kubuntu one is messed up; the Kubuntu partition is the one I use on a normal basis. Yet tonight I got 2 issues; one related to a Kernel update that is preventing me to boot (I had another post for it), and the 2nd, is, using a previous kernel I managed to boot again, yet I removed accidentally nvidia drivers: I used "apt-get autoremove" and several NVidia libs/drivers were deleted. Now the screen is messed up with gigantic icons and windows; it almost cannot be operated.

    I have a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti connected to a Samsung Q70R TV


    How can I restore the drivers? is there a safe-boot mode, and there can I use some command lines to restore the drivers, and the visibility on the Kubuntu partition?

Working...
