What should I do ?

Thanks

    The system does it automatically, which is why I got the “updates available” notification.

    That said, after encountering the error, I did run it just in case before running apt install -f.

      The error message suggests to look at:

      /var/lib/dkms/amdgpu/6.12.12-2147987.24.04/build/make.log

      What does it say?

      Also, are you running this on a System 76 machine? If so, I’m guessing that they’re the first point of support.
