Yes, happened to me also. Kubuntu 18.04.1
Yesterday (Nov 27) suddenly (after auto upgrade of the system) nvidia stopped
working (switched to nouveau, probably).
Upgraded to Kubuntu 18.10
This actually made the situation even worse - stuck on 640x480 resolution.
Had nvidia-390 installed at the moment, but the system wasn't using it.
After some looking around, installed:
sudo apt install nvidia-dkms-410 xserver-xorg-video-nvidia-410 nvidia-
kernel-source-410
which made the situation look better: resolution was again native (1920x1200)
and nvidia-settings launched and showed 410 driver running.
But in the Steam games, it showed that llvm driver was being used. And games
such as Wolfenstein New Order (uses proton wine) didn't even launch.
After some more fiddling around, actually using the Kubuntu GUI tool
(System Settings > Driver Manager > Nvidia > 410) fixed the situation.
Apparently the GUI tool does it somehow better than installing the
nvidia package manually.

Title:
Upgrading Ubuntu 18.04 disables GPU hardware acceleration
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I don't know which package causes this problem. The thing is ugrading
Ubuntu 18.04 disables my GPU hardware acceleration.
glxinfo_before_upgrade
OpenGL vendor string: X.Org
OpenGL renderer string: Radeon RX 560 Series (POLARIS11 / DRM 3.23.0 /
4.15.0-10-generic, LLVM 5.0.1)
OpenGL core profile version string: 4.5 (Core Profile) Mesa 17.3.3
glxinfo_after_upgrade
OpenGL vendor string: VMware, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: llvmpipe (LLVM 5.0, 256 bits)
OpenGL core profile version string: 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 17.3.3
This problem is reproducible.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install Ubuntu 18.04 daily live. I've tried Kubuntu 18.04 Feb 26's daily
live(the installer in Mar 1 crashes which prevents me from installing it) and
Xubuntu 18.04 Mar 2's daily live. Ubuntu is utilizing my GPU in live cd session
and after the fresh install Ubuntu is also utilizing my GPU.
2. Reboot into the newly installed system, do a dist-upgrade and reboot
again. Opengl renderer falls back to llvmpipe.
