No Sound, no webcam and Only one monitor on Ubuntu 23.04 with NVIDIA graphics card
-
I have tried different versions of NVIDIA Drivers and no luck.
Doesn't look like NVIDIA Drivers are loading.
nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running. -
Ran this, sudo apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
Not sure why they weren't installed or what happened but I have 4 monitors now.

I'm surprised the NVIDIA drivers even installed. They'll normally yell at you if you don't have the header files installed.
Glad to know you fixed the issue!

@dafyre Yeah, and it was working great until a recent update. So, not exactly sure what happened but I am sure glad not to be working off of just one monitor anymore. I don't know how anyone does that!?!
-
Now I am finding out that my audio and webcam aren't working. Not sure what was in this latest update but it sure caused havoc on my system.

Do you do "apt dist-upgrade" for your daily updates? The headers aren't always installed by default. But maybe they were but not updated?

I'm guessing that they were out of date.

@scottalanmiller Yes and sudo apt dist-upgrade shows all is up to date. Not sure why I have no sound or why the webcam isn't recognized. I am guessing it's a driver or dependency issue as well.

Just because I'm stupid, did you check in the Sound area and make sure there were no other devices showing?
-
@dafyre I'm sure you are better than me at Linux! But yes. It just shows dummy output.

Looks like drivers not loading. -
Turns out it's a Ubuntu bug:

Did you try some of the different suggestions there? A couple of folks mentioned changing kernel versions seemed to make things happy-ish again.
-
@dafyre Yes, I did. I am using a different kernel now and for the moment, things seem to be happy! (Ish!)
