Nvidia driver won't load - Ubuntu Win10 Dual boot
Problem / Symptoms:
I have Win10 / Ubuntu 18.10 dual boot on my Asus GL703GS laptop which has worked great for months. However, after connecting / disconnecting HDMI cord while in Win10, Ubuntu can apparently no longer use the graphics card.
It lists the display as "Unknown Display"
Resolution is set to 800x480 and no option to change it.
- On Win10 the GPU works and it had worked on Ubuntu for months prior so I don't think it's the hardware.
- I suspect Windows has locked up some display driver resource that persists after reboot.
Already tried:
- Cannot reinstall Nvidia drivers in Ubuntu, says "nvidia-uvm" is already loaded and it cannot be unloaded. Tried reinstalling through the Nvidia .run file, Ubuntu automatic driver update, etc, no luck.
- Tried uninstalling Nvidia drivers and removing all traces of it in Win10 and reinstalling it. No point in this process changed anything for Ubuntu, same issues there.
- Tried many tutorials / answers related to xrandr but none of them work at all.
- No results from any lsof nvidia commands.
Machine Details:
- Output of
lspci | grep NVIDIA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP104M [GeForce GTX 1070 Mobile] (rev a1)
