Instalei recentemente o Ubuntu 18.04 e instalei o driver NVIDIA, mas eles não parecem estar carregando.
Eu tive que fazer a seguinte edição no meu arquivo grub para fazer as coisas inicializar corretamente como por este pequeno guia .
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nouveau.modeset=0 tpm_tis.interrupts=0 acpi_osi=Linux i915.preliminary_hw_support=1 idle=nomwait"
Isso é o que minhas saídas de comando atualmente fornecem:
$ nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
$ nvidia-settings
