    Low resolution monitor

    The NVIDIA drivers are installed on Kubuntu 20.10 but I have a low screen resolution and I cannot set a higher screen resolution. Why does the screen resolution remain low and how can I set a higher screen resolution?

    Without having told us what your PC is (Desktop w/monitor or Laptop), we can't help much. So, is this a laptop with a resolution less than you know the display is capable of, or a desktop with a monitor? If the latter, what make/model and size of the monitor? If the former, what brand/model of laptop and its screen size?

          Code:
          manual_install: True
          How did you install the Nvidia driver, and which version?

          The above normally indicates that drivers were installed manually, and not using official Ubuntu packages.
          Manually downloading the driver directly from Nvidia is not the recommended install method, even Nvidia prefers users stick to distro native driver stuff
