Hello

I have a problem with my NVIDIA DRIVER 510 installed on UBUNTU 20.04. After the update/actualisation and then reboot, my second monitor did not work and nvidia was not loaded, I have already tried to reinstall several times. But nvidia still not loaded. Security boot is disabled in BIOS.
Dual Boot machine with WIN 10 64bit. Dell Precission 3450. Driver 510 is recommended.

I tryed:

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

nvidia-settings
response:

I have exactly the same problem after the updates to Kubuntu 20.04 LTS yesterday.
I have also tried reinstalling, uninstalling, switching to the non-Nvidia driver and back. I have no blacklisted files in modprobe.d.

Welcome @ian.jefferson and @blahusiak to the NVIDIA developer forums!

Thank you for already sharing your bug report log files, we will have a look at them.

As Ian pointed out the Graphics/Linux forums are a great resource for solutions to similar issues like these.

Quite often Ubuntu does distribution updates that introduce incompatibilities with the recommended drivers certified as part of the distribution. In those cases the safest bet is either to roll-back for example the kernel, if it was changed, or look for an updated NVIDIA driver on our driver download pages.
