Secure Boot is a mode for UEFI that Windows brings from Windows 8, and that prevents the execution of any unsigned or certified software, thus preventing nvidia open source drivers to communicate with the GPU. To do this restart the pc, press serveral times F1, F2 or F10 (it depends on the pc), look for Boot Options or something like that and disable secure boot.

Go to your BIOS and disable secure boot.

I have to say that I am a noob in the world of Linux, so I going to explain the steps for noobs also. I had the same problem as you and after read several post I fixed it, so I am going to explain step by step how I did it. The solution there seems to have to do with updating the Nvidia graphics drivers. I found several forum posts suggesting that there is some kind of problem with Nvidia drivers, and sometimes your system is not getting correct resolution information for your particular monitor. If it's recognized there, you know your adapters are not the problem.Ĭheck your video card type: lspci | grep VGA See if your monitor can be detected connected to another non-ubuntu machine using the cable adapters you have. If not, there's probably a cable connection problem Somewhere in there, you should see an HDMI connected section: HDMI-1 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 477mm x 268mm You'll get some output that looks something like this: Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 3840 x 1080, maximum 8192 x 8192ĮDP-1 connected primary 1920x1080+1920+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 293mm x 165mm You can check to see if your monitor is detected at all using these commands: Though I can't offer a solution, I can suggest steps to diagnose. Having been through this recently with a new monitor, I can relate to the frustation of this. Leaving it up here in case it's useful to anyone. I just realized I posted this without seeing that you already tried most of these steps. I even completely reinstalled Ubuntu after formatting my SSD, out of desperation!Ĭould it be that both of the adapters that I tried aren't compatible with Ubuntu? Is that even a possibility? I tried deleting X10 and similar and it only made things worse.

I tried to change and to update the NVIDIA drivers, and also to use nouveau and nomodeset, but I still had no luck. I tried using different monitors, different cables and also different adapters, but nothing seemed to work.

Using the HDMI port to connect a standard HDMI monitor still worked fine, but if I tried to use an HDMI to VGA adapter nothing works anymore. Then I updated to 17.04, and the trouble started. I used an HDMI to VGA adapter a couple of times to plug in an external monitor and it always worked fine (the same as using an HDMI monitor and an HDMI-HDMI cable). I managed to install Ubuntu 16.10 last year (after a lot of trouble) because of my graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce 950 M). I have an ASUS NT7000 laptop, which only has an HDMI output.
