The instructions here solved my problem:
https://www.programmersought.com/article/45694457131/
There seemed to be a missing symlink to the nvidia-polkit python file:
1. cd /usr/share/screen-resolution-extra && ls
2. sudo ln -s nvidia-polkit.py nvidia-polkit
3. sudo chmod +x nvidia-polkit

Same here, with Nvidia 455.45.01 on Ubuntu 20.04. In fact I've been
facing this for years, since 18.04.
The workaround I'm using is to call nvidia-settings via a shell script
in Gnome's Startup Applications.
It's a bit annoying because it only applies after you log in, but has
the additional
I have also the same problem. With two monitors, I change the monitor
positions (left/right) in the nvidia-settings tool (started with sudo)
and write it to the X Configuration file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf). The file
is changed, but the monitor positions are reset after next reboot.
I wondered why
Ok I just did a quick test. It is writing to my xorg.conf.
Also I noticed that when ubuntu starts up, on the login screen both
screens have the purple background color - it's only after that when it
gets to the desktop does the second display turn off.

settings, only Xorg.1.log is updated.

When using nvidia drivers, I get 2 Xorg logs, as I understand this is normal
behavior, since on a new system, when switching to nvidia drivers, the same
thing happens. When changing settings in nvidia-settings, the logs are updated
only in Xorg.1.log.
The settings are overwritten on reboot,

Installing xserver-xorg-dev fixed the error:
Package xorg-server was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `xorg-server.pc '
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'xorg-server' found
But the settings are reset on reboot.

I'm seeing what i think is a related problem using Ubuntu 20.04 and
nvidia driver 440. IE default ubuntu 20.04 install from the ISO (and
then updated).
My settings do not persist across reboots. (which is really annoying
since I have a secondary display rotated. Tried running as sudo - it
seems
I found the solution installing screen-resolution-extra 0.18 from
https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/screen-resolution-extra using dbkg -i
place where u downloaded deb file.
