This is a lenovo laptop with Quadro RTX 4000. Installing ubuntu-drivers by Software Center does not work, so I used a .run file. Before a kernel auto-update I used an xorg.conf with a self defined ModeLine, ConnectedMonitor and CustomEIDD to directly load the inbuilt display screen. After the update, if I continue to specify the EDID file there is an error about ‘failed to set screen _icc_profile failed to open file permission denied’. Now I cannot recover the original state that loads a display with nvidia drivers installed. Reinstalled ubuntu afterwards, but still the same errors appear.
Display device seems to be unable to connect. Startx fails with a (EE) no screens found, and Xorg.0.log approximately loads like this:
