Removed Built-in screen from NVidia

• I accidently removed the the built-in screen in nvidia settings

• Now only HDMI port display is working

• It sucks, as i was setting up the HDMI with TV to watch movie and it was flickering to i messed up the settings.

• Now i need to fix it.

• Let’s start with reinstalling the graphic drivers

• What if i cannot access the screen at all after reinstalling?

• I must setup the ssh too

• But the router does not even have a static ip setup

• I’ll make sure that wifi didn’t restart

• sudo apt install openssh-server

• working now

Reinstalling drivers

• sudo apt remove –purge ‘^nvidia-.*’
• After rebooting
• i am installing it back from PopShop
• Didn’t helped at all
• xrandr –listmonitors
  • there is only HDMI display only
• Now i have removed the driver again and now the screen is showing nothing
• i changed to integrated graphics
• but it is not working

Nuclear option

• recreate Xorg config

sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
sudo reboot
