Hi All
Looks like the kernel needs a patch for the 5.6.0 kernel and 440.64 driver, for those that use the run file with a standalone Nvidia GPU (like I do), the following will get things working again, remember, do this as your user, only need to be root user for installing;

Code:

cd
mkdir -p nvidia-5.6.0
cp NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-440.64.run nvidia-5.6.0/
cd nvidia-5.6.0
wget -O kernel-5.6.patch https://gitlab.com/snippets/1945940/raw
find ./ -type f -exec sed -i 's/a\/kernel/kernel/g;s/b\/kernel/kernel/g' {} \;
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-440.64.run --apply-patch kernel-5.6.patch
....
patching file....
Adding files to archive named "NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-440.64-custom.run"...
....
Self-extractible archive "NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-440.64-custom.run" successfully created.

You can then boot to multi-user.target and then manually run the custom run file.

Then all should be good....

Code:

pinxi -GSxxz
