Hi

Try
lspci | grep -i vga

This shows whether you have Intel integrated graphics, NVIDIA, or both (for hybrid setups).


Intel drivers are usually included in the Linux kernel. Make sure your system is fully updated:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

Intel graphics issues are often resolved by a kernel or Mesa update, which Ubuntu 24.04 provides by default.

For NVIDIA GPUs
The recommended way is using Ubuntu's built-in Additional Drivers tool:

  • Open "Software & Updates" from the app menu.

  • Go to "Additional Drivers" tab.

  • The tool will detect your NVIDIA GPU and recommend the latest proprietary driver.

  • Select the recommended driver (e.g., nvidia-driver-580 or latest version shown).

  • Click "Apply Changes" and reboot.

Alternatively, install the latest NVIDIA driver via terminal:

sudo apt update sudo apt install nvidia-driver-580 nvidia-settings sudo reboot

Replace 580 with the version suggested for your GPU.

Verify Driver Installation
After reboot:

nvidia-smi          This should show your NVIDIA GPU details if installed correctly.

Make sure "restricted" and "multiverse" repositories are enabled.

For hybrid graphics (Intel + NVIDIA), consider installing nvTroubleshootingidia-prime for switching GPUs:

sudo apt install nvidia-prime       If problems persist, check logs in /var/log or dmesg for errors.
