I have been using my laptop without the NVIDIA drivers for a few months now and decided to try the drivers out. Before installing them, when I ran sensors
, I could see an NVMe entry, but now I no longer see it.
Now, this might be because I stopped using the mainline kernel, but I could not get NVIDIA’s DKMS module to compile with 5.7 (I was using release candidates up until a day or two ago), which is why I downgraded to Ubuntu Focal’s regular kernels.

Any and all ideas as to what is going on are appreciated!
Edit
Oh, and I could also read the dGPU’s temperature with sensors
, but no longer can. NVIDIA’s tools can though…
