Good morning community.
As I indicated in the title my problem is that when I updated the computer with an apt-get full-upgrade the kernel has been updated and my external display has stopped working.
I have tried to reuse the NVIDIA private drivers but when I run the xrandr command it does not recognize the external display or the HDMI connector.
I have read of users who have had similar problems with other physical components of the computer but not the display.
Currently the kernel I am using is 5.15.0-56-generic and the operating system is Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS.
Attached is the output of the xrandr command as well as lspci in case it might be helpful in figuring out what is causing this problem.
Best regards.
