Problem on new Ubuntu 22.04

I also am having issues with the driver install. I'm running Ubuntu 22.04 ( 5.15.0-50-generic ) after attempting to install and thus needed to revert to the previous kernel after my system would no longer boot. After reverting to kernel 5.15.0-50, the same error occurs.

The installation log from the attempt.

I may be experiencing issues with the installation of evdi-dkms, but reviewing the forum, I am unable to locate a solution.

Thanks in advance

Any ideas on how to proceed would be a help.

Thanks
