I have a NVIDIA Corporation GM206 [GeForce GTX 950] and have the most recent drives. I did a software update through the GUI and after reboot I got using the boot option "Ubuntu, with Linux 5.15.0-52-generic", when I boot my screen is not recognized, and I am locked at 1024 x 768 resolution. When I boot with "Ubuntu, with Linux 5.15.0-50-generic" my screen works and lets me use the correct aspect ratio and resolution (16:9 up to 3840x2160). I tried sudo ubuntu-drivers install
and the sudo apt update; sudo apt upgrade; sudo apt autoclean && sudo apt autoremove; sudo update-grub
loop several times to no avail.
Below I'll put the output of xrandr --verbose
, and nvidia-settings
when I boot with Linux 5.15.0-52-generic and the screen isn't working.

I am using nvidia-515 proprietary which I believe is what was installed with sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
a while ago. I am trying to install nvidia-520 now.
edit after switching to the proprietary nvidia-drivers-520
everything works and here is the current output of dkms status
:
