Upgrade system is not friendly to gpu driver

  • 772

I need help. I am on ubuntu 20.04.3 lts, and I have installed amdgpu-pro driver to have opencl support as well. But then after upgrade os offered me to do apt autoremove. I did that and it seems that it removed kernel modules. So after i reboot it will be a big problem.. I did this in the past, had to reinstall os.. now i just forget and accidentally did that again. What to do? Why updater breaks my system?! How to fix it? Why this all is so poorly organized!?? - if its being able to detect that it is active on kurrent kernel.. how it could remove my video driver?

I still not rebooted, how can i fix that? from now on i will not be able to boot any newly generated kernel versions (graphics will flicker and freeze, only older one)
