4 years ago For anyone who might encounter this thread, I've solved my problem by running this command:
sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstallAfter running (and installing a bunch of packages) the selected installed driver became the recommended one (run ubuntu-drivers devices to find out what that is). Don't forget to reboot afterwards.

3 years ago These two things worked for me on Ubuntu 12.10. Thank you! After running the commands and rebooting, the screen was at low resolution, so I switched to the next-newest driver (which is what Ubuntu had selected by default after being installed) and rebooted again. Smooth sailing since then.

3 years ago Yes, it is. I'm trying to solve it right now. For me it started after installing NVidia Cuda following the instructions at https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads.

Since this issue is still open...I faced this exact issue on a fresh install of Ubuntu 22.04. Running the command from @vpalos worked for me as well! Thank you for posting the solution. I realize this is a Linux Mint issue, however the issue was present on Ubuntu, which makes me think it's something further upstream, maybe?

I am getting the same error on sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
Is there a workaround for this?

worked for me. I was facing the issue of black screen after boot so i change the driver to nouveau driver from the during the bootup process after that my drivers got locked to "continue using manually installed driver " in the ubuntu addition drivers
after making this changes and rebooting i was able to change my driver from addition driver setting but it is still facing the blackout screen problem
I have one more question should i be using the nvidia drivers open(porprietary,tested ) ones or just the one proprietary option thank you in advance
I hope this is the proper location to post an issue. if not, please notify me. I will move it later.
Issue I am getting this message:
Then, the driver manager shows:
the problem is, i can't get back to install the nvidia drivers. other options are greyed out.
Steps to reproduce
note: this is tested not only in a computer, but other computer as well. with the same mint distribution.
Expected behaviour
Users are freely switching between drivers even if they manually install custom drivers.
Other information this linux mint is upgraded version form 19.02 via update manager.

.xsession-errors info:
I have found this conversation on the forum but I have not tried the solution when this report was posted.
Any further assistance or instruction for this (probably) bug, I'd like to give further relevant information .
