Cannot load drivers in Ubuntu 22.04, kernel 6.10.10-061010-generic

Hello everyone.

I’ve recently become aware that my laptop is not loading the drivers for Nvidia, therefore using the onboard video.

Running nvidia-smi gives me the following:

NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn’t communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

Running ubuntu-drivers list giver the following:

I installed the 560 driver from the GUI.

Not sure where to go from here. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I have the same problem, seir the big Ubuntu 24.04 LTS update. according to nvidia-smi the RTX 4060 is OFF.

In the system settings, only the Mesa Intel graphics card is displayed under graphics processor.
