NVIDIA Graphics Card doesnt let me change my resolution












0















I've recently installed Kubuntu 18.01 on my PC alongside Windows 10, and the initial issue was that I couldn't adjust my resolution to my monitors native resolution(1280x1024).
However, I managed to fix the issue by following the instructions here.



The problem was, when I opened a diffrent application(Blender) I noticed that it didn't see the graphics card. So, I ran sudo apt-get install nvidia-cuda-toolkit as suggested here and restarted my PC.



But when I opened it again, it was no longer using my set resolution and now when I try to use the method I previously used to fix the issue I am greeted by this lovely error message:



user@user_PC:~$ sudo xrandr--newmode "1280x1024_60.00"  109.00  1280 1368 1496 1712  1024 1027 1034 1063 -hsync +vsync
[sudo] password for user:
user@user_PC:~$ sudo xrandr --addmode DVI-I-1 "1280x1024_60.00"
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 140 (RANDR)
Minor opcode of failed request: 18 (RRAddOutputMode)
Serial number of failed request: 39
Current serial number in output stream: 40


What should I do?



PS:I have a GTX 970, and currently using the nvidia-driver-390 driver.
