    Driver manager is borked

    I was using Kubuntu 23.04 and tried to use Driver Manager to fix my GPU driver problem. I had the Navoo driver installed and needed the 525 NVIDIA driver. I ran Driver Manager, entered my pass and everything was greyed out. I tried rebooting Still greyed out. I went to the Kubuntu forums, realized my version was EOL, and ran the upgrader - I never actually read the notice that kept popping up every morning.

    I just ran Driver Manager and entered my password and it is still greyed out. How do I check which driver I have and how do I get Driver Manager working again?

    The forums were too slow. I found the solution to both problems with the terminal and
    Code:
    sudo ubuntu-drivers install
    . Now I am using the 535 driver and Driver Manager works correctly again. I am guessing Driver Manager must have gotten its config file glitched somehow and using the above terminal command fixed it.
