5. Discrete Graphics Card Drivers (Intel + nvidia)
1. If you own laptops with integrated and discrete graphics, nvidia cards
2. You may try fiddling around with bumblebee, but not good for this version

4. Go to recovery mode (select advanced startup options for linux mint)
5. sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-all
3. Try nvidia prime
1. sudo apt install nvidia-prime
2. prime-select query
4. if you need to update drivers:
1. sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
to check the drivers and graphics cards u are using:
If your driver is working correctly, the controller should NOT say *-display UNCLAIMED
when you type:
sudo lshw -C display

sudo lshw -C display
Note: you may have to disable secure boot in UEFI/BIOS order to access your nvidia drivers...
To access your UEFI (BIOS like thing):
https://superuser.com/questions/519718/linux-on-uefi-how-to-reboot-to-the-uefi-setup-screen-like-windows-8-can
systemctl reboot --firmware-setup
If you want to do this with secure boot consider these links:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1023036/how-to-install-nvidia-driver-with-secure-boot-enabled
https://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/319.32/README/installdriver.html
So long story short, if you see a blue screen when rebooting after installing nvidia drivers, make sure to select the enroll MOK key option!
If you wish to restart your nvidia drivier install:
sudo apt remove --purge nvidia-*
It may also be important to add i386 architecture (32 bit packages, since lots of games use 32 bit packages, and perhaps some nvidia packages, eg. the package helping sign your drivers with the MOK key)
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
(note: this will cause games like Bloons TD 6 to work, but you WILL lag when you alt-tab)
sudo apt update
The above command deletes the nvidia drivers in the system (linux mint ubuntu),
Then enable noveau drivers in your driver manager so that we get rid of all the nvidia configuration files, including your MOK key.
Restart,
And after restart enable nvidia drivers in your driver manager. Restart again. You may find that the drivers once again work.
IMPORTANT!
Make sure to enter your MOK key, this is essential for secure boot!
