I've been using ubuntu (dual-boot) for a few weeks now and today the resolution went to 1024x768, with no way to change it.

I first tried the fix where you update the grub file to the resolution of the monitor, in my case 2640x1440. After updating grub and restarting, nothing changed.

Then I went to the 'software and updates' app and tried switching from the nouveau driver to the (proprietary,tested) Nvidia open kernel 520 driver. Then I restarted and nothing changed.

I'm on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS, with a 3060ti GPU

Here's some of the commands I ran, to give you more info:

:~$ lsb_release -a

I'm not very familiar with linux, so I'm not sure if I should try and follow the answer from this post, where the solution was to purge the driver,reinstall, and (i think) force the driver to work with the kernel?:

nvidia driver not detected. Screen is on low resolution
