nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn’t communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
sudo dkms status
nvidia, 460.39, 5.8.0-40-generic, x86_64: installed
I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver several times.
My system specs are -
Processor - AMD Ryzen 5 3550H
RAM - 8 GB
Please run nvidia-bug-report.sh as root and attach the resulting nvidia-bug-report.log.gz file to your post.
Thanks for replying so fast.
I have attached the required file with this message.nvidia-bug-report.log.gz (138.5 KB)
Secure boot is enabled so the driver doesn’t load. Please either disable secure boot in bios or reinstall Ubuntu and select to “install third-party software” during install which will enable module signing.
After disabling Secure Boot,
then running sudo apt purge nvidia*,
then reinstalling drivers

You need to reboot to load the driver.
You can install Nvidia drivers either using GUI or CLI method in your Acer Aspire C27 machine. Open “Software and Updates” app to install install Nvidia driver using GUI. OR type “ sudo apt install nvidia-driver-510 nvidia-dkms-510 ” at the CLI. Reboot the computer/laptop to load the drivers.
have you fixed that . I am also facing the same problem
