[SOLVED] NVIDIA Drivers are not working properly (gdm)

josep · 2022-06-24 09:54:22

I've been having some problems installing my NVIDIA drivers and I can't see them using, the video device now set to Intel, but I want to make NVIDIA as default. Please help!

These are my logs:

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

ERROR: NVIDIA driver is not loaded


(nvidia-settings:2556): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 04:51:10.617: g_object_unref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

** (nvidia-settings:2556): CRITICAL **: 04:51:10.619: ctk_powermode_new: assertion '(ctrl_target != NULL) && (ctrl_target->h != NULL)' failed

ERROR: nvidia-settings could not find the registry key file or the X server is not accessible. This file should have been installed along with this driver at
       /usr/share/nvidia/nvidia-application-profiles-key-documentation. The application profiles will continue to work, but values cannot be prepopulated or validated, and will not
       be listed in the help text. Please see the README for possible values and descriptions.

Thanks, I just had to install that nvidia-lts package in order to make Graphics work as desired. Thank you.
