driver : nvidia-driver-410 - third-party free
driver : xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - distro free builtin


so after that, I install nvidia-driver-418



but, when I use nvidia-smi to check it work



AERO-15:~$ nvidia-smi 
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.


I sure that I install the driver, use sudo dpkg --list | grep nvidia



how to fix it ? it is wrong because of the laptop or the ubuntu ?
