If the output includes the nouveau module, you will need to blacklist this module to stop it loading in future. You can check with the following command: lsmod | grep nouveau The nouveau driver, installed by default when you elect not to add NVIDIA’s proprietary drivers, may refuse to remove itself. It’s safer to reboot your machine at this point, although this isn’t strictly necessary. To remove your current NVIDIA or open source Nouveau drivers, enter the following: sudo apt remove -purge nvidia* This can be done by entering the following into a terminal: sudo systemctl isolate multi-user.target When working with graphics drivers, it’s best to quit from the X.org graphical environment and work on the command line. We need to make sure these are fully removed before attempting to install a new set. With either a new or old Ubuntu 18.04 installation, it’s likely that you’ll have NVIDIA drivers of one sort or another on your system.
