Hi, I just dualboot installed Ubuntu 18.04 on a newly bought laptop ROG Zephyrus G15 GA502IV-HN070T. The laptop is with AMD R9 4900HS and GeForce® RTX 2060 with Max-Q Design 6GB DDR 6 GPU.
My problem
I needed OpenGL 4.6+ but my OpenGL is only 3.3, even I have installed nvidia driver, the OpenGL version is still 3.3.
Information that I think could be relevant:
At first when I installed ubuntu, it shown a black screen instead of GUI. I tried to add nouveau.modeset=0 next to “… quiet splash” in grub boot menu and then press F10, I can enter the ubuntu GUI. But after I installed nvidia driver 460 in “Software and Update → Additional Driver” and reboot, it shows the black screen again. This time I cannot use the nouveau.modeset=0 to enter the ubuntu GUI.
Then I tried to reinstall ubuntu again. after using nouveau.modeset=0 to enter the ubuntu GUI, I choose to install nvidia driver 450 this time, after reboot I can enter the ubuntu GUI successfully. nvidia-smi is also giving me correct info. Not sure if the driver version is related to this glxinfo issue but driver 450 is the only working driver so I cant test it out.
$ uname -r
5.4.0-65-generic

Thanks in advance for your help.
I have been dealing with this issue for a week, reinstalling nvidia driver for 20+ times.
