That is strange that Ubuntu recommended the 390 driver to me. $ ubuntu-drivers devices modalias : pci:v000010DEd00000FF6sv00001028sd000015CCbc03sc00i00 vendor : NVIDIA Corporation model : GK107GLM [Quadro K1100M] driver : nvidia-340 - distro non-free recommended driver : nvidia-driver-390 - distro non-free driver : nvidia-driver-418-server - distro non-free driver : xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - distro free builtin
I had seen on nvidia's website that 418 was the supported driver. However that did not work either (by downloading from nvidia's website). However, I had opened a post on Nvidia's forums as well[1], and they recommended I install 470, although didn't mention from where. But I managed to install it by adding the PPA ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa. Now things seem to be working. Thanks a lot for the help. Any ideas what's different between the PPA I used, and the repo you suggested?
