After upgrading linux kernel, I have to reinstall nvidia-driver. Otherwise, the display will not use GPU.

Now I need to do the following manaully after the kernel is updated

sudo apt remove nvidia-driver-396
sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-396

Here is the system info

➜  ~ cat /etc/lsb-release                                     
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=18.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=bionic
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS"

And the GPU card

➜  ~ nvidia-smi

dkms is already installed.

dkms status outputs some strange error

➜  coqa_rnet git:(master) ✗ dkms status     
anbox, 1, 4.15.0-33-generic, x86_64: installedError! Could not locate dkms.conf file.
File:  does not exist.

anbox, 1, 4.15.0-34-generic, x86_64: installed

Am I missing any configuration for the module?

Thank you!
