Unable to determine the device handle for GPU 0000:01:00.0: Not Found

OS: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
Kernel version: 5.15.0-52-generic
Driver Version: 520.56.06
GPUs: 1xRTX2060M

I got an error upon a power off/power on, while everything was fine earlier after boot I realized that drivers are not registered or they cant be located. At that time, I couldn’t even use the commands like nvidia-smi, etc.

After installing sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall, drivers v520 are installed, and I started getting this error message for nvidia-smi

Note that, this machine is MSI-GL65 Leopard laptop and not a desktop. I’ve searched and found solutions to the same/similar error messages with no help so far. After observing

echo >&2 "  ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.";		\

I tried to reinstall kernel headers, but the error persisted.

Below is the fresh bug report (generated at the end, after my trials (installing kernel headers, etc.)).

I solved the problem by switching to non open-kernel variant from additional drivers as below.

I had the exact same issue and this fix worked for me, thanks.

I had the exactly same issue but after installing the non-open-kernel drivers, the screen turned black, nothing on the screen, but I still could use the ssh, so I tried Nvidia-smi, and it’s showed everything is installed properly I got the Driver version, got CUDA version, but nothing shows on the screen, BTW,I couldn’t enter tty mode. is there anyone who could help me out?
