ubuntu - nvidia driver impossible to use precision 7750
Hi,
I have tried in all sorts of way to use nvidia's driver to work to no avail. I have a Dell Precision 7750 under ubuntu 18 and a Quadro T1000 Mobile. For some reason, the Nouveau driver takes precedence, even though Secure boot is disabled, switchable graphics is disabled and so on... is there some bios parameter I should be aware of that can prevent nvidia's driver from working ? Any help would be extremely welcome : I have been bugged by this for about 2 weeks now and nothing seems to work...
Have a good day,
Marc

I meant that I will research this for you by asking our Ubuntu engineers and reply back to you.

mblet,
I am sure you have tried uninstalling both and reinstalled them back in the system.

mblet,
Have you tried enabling the switchable graphics to on?

Thanks but I already tried a few solutions suggested on the ubuntu forum (see here : https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2453253&p=13998194#post13998194) and apparently, people just don't know how to deal with my situation... and I already tried everything that's on the other link, to no avail.
