ejg

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and 20.04 LTS show a second unknown display, which is not actually present. I have tried every related solution with no success.

  • I am running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
  • I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 graphic card.
  • I have nvidia-driver-470 installed.

Attempts:

  • Clean install Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
  • Upgrade to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
  • Solutions involving sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
  • purging nvidia drivers and reinstalling.
  • modifying grub file GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX for unknown display at DP-1-3

DP-1-3 is the unknown monitor. I believe it is preventing me from using an external HDMI monitor.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
