It looks like there are two problems here: 1. The kernel can't find the GPU at all. This is either due to a BIOS setting or some kind of optimus / prime switch you need to flip (sorry I'm not familiar with that).
2. You tried to manually install unsupported driver version 455.23.05 and it failed. So first please check your BIOS and make sure the discrete GPU is enabled. If that doesn't fix it then some quick googling suggests the problem should be fixed by installing a working driver, so try: sudo apt update sudo apt install --reinstall nvidia-driver-450 nvidia-prime ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => ubuntu ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1903200 Title: Ubuntu is unable to detect one of my GPUs Status in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have an MSI laptop which was working fine with Ubuntu 18, but I decided to upgrade. It has one of these dual graphics setups, which and Intel HD 630 and a NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB. On Ubuntu 18, I simply get the NVIDIA GPU to work by selecting its drivers on the "Additional Drivers" tab under "Software and Updates", but on this version of Ubuntu, my GPU doesn't appear there any more. Also, if I type this in the console: $ lspci | grep -i --color 'vga\|3d\|2d' This is the only line I get: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 630 (rev 04) Just in case, my laptop model is this: https://es.msi.com/Laptop /GL72VR-7RFX I also have Windows on dual boot and the GPU works perfectly fine there. Also, it is not disabled on the BIOS or something like that. I don't think that is even possible on my BIOS either. $ lspci -k | grep -EA3 'VGA|3D|Display' 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 630 (rev 04) DeviceName: Onboard IGD Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd.
