Public bug reported: 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 Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. I forgot to say that 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.
