Basically the title says it all. I have brand new Asus Rog Strix with AMD Ryzen 9 and Nvidia RTX 3070. After the initial install of Ubuntu MATE 20.04 it is working fine with the Nouveau driver. However, if I install the nvidia driver (manually or via the package manager), I always end-up on black…

OK, I have to give you a huge kudos!!! Thanks you very much for your time, you were amazing!!! To sum it up for all with the same issue: Get the latest Kernel. Currently it is 5.10.14 Download all files from this URL https://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/gs/ and copy them to /…
