Hello, I’m making this post because I’m having some issues with NVIDIA driver and I want to revert back to an older version.

Since version 535 I’ve been having troubles with the driver on XWayland, specifically while playing games (black horizontal bars flickering on the screen, tearing, stuttering). The last version of the driver that was working well was version 525.

Is there any way I can install nvidia version 525? Executing $ ubuntu-drivers devices the last version I can find is 535.

Thanks to anyone willing to help

Update: I tried to add the ppa from here “https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages” and manually install the desired nvidia driver version, alongside all the dependencies needed, but the linux kernel it was targeting was version 6.2. I don’t know if the problem was generated because of this, but after I finished the installation, only one monitor was working, animations were choppy and nvidia-smi was not working. Basically something was wrong and the driver was not working.

      Unfortunately I was not able to find older driver versions in the Pop shop

          I wasn’t able to make any progress. I decided to wait it out for a new driver version that will hopefully fix the problem.
