Greetings,
I have owned this Dell 7510 with Nvidia Quadro M2000M 4GB GDDR5 laptop for a number of years.
I upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 a few months ago and could still see my Nvidia GPU card.
But perhaps about a month ago, I realized that nvidia drivers where not showing up in ‘Additional Drivers’ and just today, after quite a bit of exploration, I saw that the Nvidia GPU card is not identified (I was trying to install a specific set of tensorflow/cuda/cudnn settings).
Below is debugging information that I hope can help you help me.
- Nvidia-but-report is attached.
- sudo hwinfo --gfxcard --short
graphics card:
Intel HD Graphics 530
Primary display adapter: #24```
3) sudo lshw -c display```>>$ sudo lshw -c display

4) Ubuntu's Additional Drivers do not show anything. The command 'sudo ubuntu-drivers devices' also does not show anything.
'lspci | grep -i nvidia' shows nothing'lspci | grep -i nvidia;'lspci -k | grep -A 2 -i "VGA" 'shows:
```00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 530 (rev 06)

- Udev rules
grep 10de /lib/udev/rules.d/*are:```lib/udev/rules.d/71-nvidia.rules:SUBSYSTEM==“pci”, ATTRS{vendor}==“0x10de”, DRIVERS==“nvidia”, TAG+=“seat”, TAG+=“master-of-seat”
6) Also tried`sudo apt-get install nvidia-driver-440`
`sudo update-pciids`
`sudo apt-get install mesa-utils`
`sudo prime-select nvidia`
`sudo prime-switch nvidia`
Dell recently replaced the frame around my laptop, I wonder if the GPU might not have been connected properly? Although I cannot recall if I noticed any differences at that time.
Feedback is welcome.
Thanks
