    Updated Kernel Now Video Configuration Won't Work

    I just ran the latest kernel update today, using sudo install dist-upgrade.

    When I rebooted the following message appeared:

    Following Error Was Encountered. You May Need to Update Your Configuration to Solve:

    (EE) Failed to load module "type 1" (module does not exist, 0)


    (EE) Failed to load module "freetype" (module does not exist, 0)

    (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize NVIDIA kernel, please see the systems' kernel log for additional error messages and consult NVIDIA Reademe

    ****ABORTING****

    Screen(s) found, but non hvae usable configuration.

    What gives? How can I get my lovely KDE back?

    This happened to me too... I had to reboot and at grub I chose the previous kernel option.
    I'll be watching this thread for help!

      I'm back and up and working with the new kernel.

      I rebooted to a shell terminal and ...

      sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-185.18.14-pkg1.run

      followed the script which added the drivers to the new kernel. The numbers after "NVIDIA-Linux-xxx-xxx.xx.xx-pkg1.run may be different for other people. I got this script from www.nvidia.com based on my arch.

        I tried that, but it didn't work for me.

              Are you coming back in recovery mode or in a previous kernel or on another machine or what?

                I was coming back in console mode. I finally gave up and did a fresh installation.
