Thanks,

I tried the nvidia driver 435.  seems that Umbuntu rejects and and reverted
to the nouveau
 driver.  But the resolution is very low and the rendering quality is bad.
In the ubuntu settings/displays/resolution it does not give me a high
resolution option.

My eyes are just about burned out getting this far, the rendering is bad,
like a really bad focus, blurry.
