Basically you can use the command-line to tell nvidia-settings to reset which
displays are present. It then properly forgets about the old display and allows
you to use the dialog to detect the new one. I'm using the latest packaged
drivers (260.19.06-0ubuntu1)
Here's a short script that should reset to only using the laptop's local LCD:
#!/bin/bash
echo Current display status
nvidia-settings -d -q AssociatedDisplays
echo Configuring to only know about LCD display
nvidia-settings -a AssociatedDisplays=0x00010000
echo Updated display status
nvidia-settings -d -q AssociatedDisplays
** Changed in: nvidia-settings (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => New
