New issue by hesifwood on void-packages repository
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/14377
Description:
### System
Void Linux running with NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030 gpu on proprietary drivers. I installed the `nvidia` package when setting up.
* xuname:
Void 5.2.13_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate rFFFF
* package:
linux5.2-5.2.13_1, nvidia-430.14_2
### Expected behavior
Being able to get proper resolution like before on 4.19 and open `nvidia-settings` without errors after upgrading to Linux 5.2
### Actual behavior
When GRUB booted to 5.2, the resolution was not like before and running nvidia-settings showed me this error:
```
$ nvidia-settings
ERROR: NVIDIA driver is not loaded
ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system
```
lxrandr was showing resolution 1024x768 under 5.2 and 1366x768 under 4.19.
### Steps to reproduce the behavior
- I upgraded recently with `sudo xbps-install -Syu`
- I had standard Void install, so it automatically installed Linux 5.2 (probably due to [this change](https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/commit/f42111e9a4deb78c71e30f274f018d20e1b69ee1))
- When I did a reboot it booted into 5.2 and the screen resolution was not ok and nvidia-settings was showing error
I [posted on reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/voidlinux/comments/d26b25/void_is_booting_into_linux_52_and_nvidia_module/) and got the solution:
```
sudo sh -c "xbps-install -f nvidia-dkms ; depmod -a"
```
Afterwards a reboot made it work fine again. Resolution came back to normal and nvidia-settings was launching without errors. So should this be automatically running somehow? Or if not possible, maybe showing a post-install message would be a good idea?

Can second the issue.
During the update itself the dkms module fails to build, but this is known, see: https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/12959#issuecomment-529855640
I would also recommend a post-install message for this.

EDIT: This issue applies to all nvidia*-dkms packages, of course.

Comment:
This should be resolved by https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/commit/9861370eef3b325ef1b716b31cc91ac58fee1c3e.
`xbps-reconfigure -f nvidia-dkms` triggers the xbps dkms hook `/usr/libexec/xbps-triggers/dkms`,
which already exported `IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH=1`, while the `/etc/kernel.d` hook which triggers dkms rebuilds on kernel updates/installs didn't export it.
So `xbps-install -Su` would rebuild the module using the kernel hook and fails, while `xbps-reconfigure -f nvidia-dkms` uses the other trigger which already makes the dkms script ignore the mismatch.
