Ubuntu 18.04 ROG Laptop has Unknown Display 800x600 after updating software

Hi

My laptop which was working fine having installed NVIDIA drivers is now only operating at 800x600
resolution following a linux software update and reboot.

Output of ubuntu-drivers devices is:

== /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0 ==
modalias : pci:v000010DEd00001C60sv00001043sd0000184Ebc03sc00i00
vendor   : NVIDIA Corporation
model    : GP106M [GeForce GTX 1060 Mobile 6GB]
driver   : nvidia-driver-430 - third-party free
driver   : nvidia-driver-415 - third-party free
driver   : nvidia-driver-435 - third-party free recommended
driver   : nvidia-driver-410 - third-party free
driver   : nvidia-driver-390 - third-party free
driver   : xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - distro free builtin

I.e. using a GTX 1060.

I have tried blacklisting the nouveu driver, and

sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall

I also tried

sudo apt-get remove nvidia-*
    sudo apt-get install nvidia-driver-435

and running the downloaded ‘.run’ all without success.

I was expecting to attach the bug report file but cannot see any attach/paperclip button. Any help appreciated. (edit) Found it. Things are not easy in 800x600.

You have secure boot enabled so the nvidia driver doesn’t load since it isn’t signed. Please disable secure boot in bios.

Thanks!

For information I had not changed the BIOS previously when the display was working at full resolution. Perhaps it was using a default driver.

I have disabled secure boot in the BIOS and rebooted but the situation remains the same. Is there something else I should do? (I have gone back into the BIOS to confirm secure boot is actually disabled). Still showing unknown display.

Make sure no stray blacklist files remain:
sudo rm /lib/modprobe.d/blacklist-nvidia.conf /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nvidia.conf
sudo update-initramfs -u
then reboot and create a new nvidia-bug-report.log.

Thanks for your help! The screen is now back to full resolution.

For completeness I’ll attach the new bug report. (edit) paperclip icon leads to selecting the nvidia-bug-report.log file but with no upload following open. So can’t upload new file.
