I am facing problem configuring and working with Nvidia drivers on Ubuntu 14.04.

At the beginning of my installation, I faced a problem with screen resolution.

I solved this issue by installing manually newer version of linux kernel.

My specs are:

  1. Ubuntu 14.04 trusty 4.10.0-35-generic 64bit (en_US.UTF-8, XFCE xubuntu)
  2. Intel Core i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz ‖ RAM 15998 MiB ‖ ASUS GL502VMZ
  3. nVidia Device [10de:1c20] {nouveau}

I want to work with the nvidia drivers not nouveau. I follow the instructions from this post answer and now I see this on the additional driver menu.

The thing is that the command nvidia-detector returns none.

Also the command sudo lshw -C display returns:

*-display UNCLAIMED     
       description: VGA compatible controller
       product: NVIDIA Corporation
       vendor: NVIDIA Corporation
       physical id: 0
       bus info: pci@0000:01:00.0

From this, I understand that something is not configured well, right?
