Dependency problems while updating kernel 6.1.0-18 [closed]

I'm only one week Debian 12 user and, to be honest, it's already my 3rd try installing to properly. Today I was trying to configure my wifi adapter TP-Link Archer T4U Plus AC1300 installing drivers on it. Firstly I was following this instruction: https://github.com/morrownr/88x2bu-20210702 and it actually helped me while previous installation of Debian everything went wrong this time.
So, while struggling with it, I've found this repository https://github.com/fastoe/RTL8812BU. After doing sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade I've noticed interesting new 6.1.0-18 kernel module which was cpnflicting with my 88x2bu and nvidia-current/525.147.05 drivers. I was trying to uninstall the first one with remove-driver.sh in copied repo folder but problem still appears. That is output while doing any sudo apt install or sudo apt upgrade:

Do: sudo apt install or sudo apt remove Expected: NOT new kernel autoinstall

I fixed mine by uninstalling all NVIDIA drivers. Backup your system before trying though.

# apt purge "*nvidia*"
systemctl reboot

i simply uninstalled linux image 6.1.18 and headers working on 6.1.17

I think this is the solution I will go with. Last time I removed Nvidia drivers trashed my system requiring a full re-install. – Mandragora 13/2 at 11:4

I did this on my debian 12 and it worked for me: 1.Use synaptic to search for linux-image-6.1.18-amd64 and select for complete removal. and apply 2. run sudo apt autoremove 3. run sudo update-grub2 4. reboot - It should reboot to the 6.1.17 kernel. NVIDIA drivers still work.

This worked for me, but I had to also remove the header packages for the same kernel version. – Sepoy 28/2 at 15:19

Linux 6.1.76 (included in the latest Debian bookworm update) broke compilation of the non-free nvidia kernel module.

see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1063675

The solution may be to uninstall your nvidia drivers in favor of the Nouveau Driver, or downgrade your Linux image/headers back to the previous version

I experience the same issue. Debian Stable changes its minor version and is breaking updates AGAIN. Last time, it was a kernel update that could cause data loss in ext4. Not so stable I would say. It seems they don't check updates properly.

So, mb don't you know how to disable this kernel autoinstall? I still can install packages but these errors annoy a bit. – Superfecundation 10/2 at 18:58

It is an option. yes. – Harmonie 11/2 at 6:20
