Recently, Ubuntu 17.04 doesn't recognize the secondary graphic card installed on my laptop by manufacturer. The graphic card model is Nvidia Geforce 720M.

Here is the output of commands I ran to diagnose the problem:

$ lspci -vnnn | perl -lne 'print if /^\d+\:.+(\[\S+\:\S+\])/' | grep VGA

$ lspci -k | grep -EA3 'VGA|3D|Display'
