Still no luck, headers were already installed.

linux-headers-5.4.0-66-generic is already the newest version (5.4.0-66.74).
Please do a reinstall of the headers to trigger dkms:
sudo apt install --reinstall linux-headers-$(uname -r)
and post the output of

Does the driver work now (after reboot)? BTW, please add kernel parameter
pci=noaer
there seems to be a problem with the USB-controller.
It did not work after reboot, stuck at same point as with 5.8 kernel (logs below).

@generix any suggestion on last reply?
According to the journal, evrything comes up fine -but- no Xserver, no Gnome is ever even trying to start. So it’s really hard to identify where things are breaking. Maybe try switching to lightdm to get some better insight.
I am experiencing the same issue on Ubuntu 20.04.2 and kernel 5.12.2-051202-generic. I installed the nvidia-driver-460 for my GeForce GT 730. I am trying to use 3 monitors, but only one is displaying something, the other 2 are blank.

I am experiencing the same issue on Ubuntu 20.04.2 and kernel 5.8.0-38-generic. I installed the nvidia-driver-460 for my GeForce GTX 1060. I have two monitors, but only one (on laptop) is working.
This appears to be an issue since I upgraded Ubuntu 18 → 20.
root@predator:~# 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.

I am actually getting dual 4k monitors working, but Ubuntu 20 doesn’t think the driver is loaded.
