Holy shit, thats quite a list. I would make all the nvidia ones are
uninstalled, and reboot to make sure things get cleared. A simple reinstal
might not be enough.Leave nouveau alone, it needs to stay there as your
built-in fallback.
Once you've removed all the nvidia pkgs and rebooted, you should be able to
get away with running
$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-driver-390
That should be a metapackage that pulls in everything else. Going off the
meta package will make sure all the different post-inst scripts are
executed. If this doesn't work, then you've pretty much ruled out the
software stuff.
I marked all of that list except xserver-xorg-video-nouveau-hwe-1.
Synaptic said there were 78 packages being removed. Once that was done I
restarted the machine. It came up with both monitors. They were in the
mode where they were mirrored, although the left part of the desktop was
off the screen on the smaller monitor. Not unexpected. It still has the
"System program problem detected" error message. I let it report the
problem.
I ran sudo apt-get install nvidia-driver-390. Once finished, I restarted
the machine again. It came up with the original problem, one screen
working at low resolution.
Thanks for the help so far.
Further ideas?
