It looks like the phantom monitor is /dev/dri/card0 which is still controlled by simpledrm, while Nvidia uses /dev/dri/card1. This also seems to be triggering bug 2062426 and bug 2066126. [ Temporary Workaround ] 1. sudo rm /dev/dri/card0 2. Log in again. [ Permanent Workaround ] Add kernel parameter: initcall_blacklist=simpledrm_platform_driver_init Beware that this has side-effects: see comment #37 [ Test Plan - Nvidia case ] 1. Set up a DESKTOP where the only GPU enabled is an Nvidia one. 2. Open the 'Additional Drivers' app to install a supported Nvidia driver. 3. Reboot and verify the Nvidia driver is now active (lspci -k should mention 'nvidia' and not 'nouveau'). 4. Open Settings and verify the only monitors shown are your real monitors. [ Regression Test Plan - Intel/AMD graphics ] 1. Set up a machine with integrated graphics only. 2. Reboot. 3. Verify that you are able to log into the Ubuntu Desktop Wayland session. 4. Run `apt install nvidia-driver-535`. 5. Reboot. 6. Verify that you are able to log into the Ubuntu Desktop Wayland session. [ Regression Test Plan - Virtual machines ] 1. Set up a virtual machine without any graphics acceleration (vmware, virtio...) 2. Reboot. 3. Verify that you are able to log into the Ubuntu Desktop Wayland session. 4. Run `sudo apt install nvidia-driver-535`. 5. Reboot. 6. Verify that you are able to log into the Ubuntu Desktop Wayland session. 7. Optionally go back to point 4, and try with nvidia-driver-550. [ Regression Test Plan - Nvidia+LUKS ] 1. Set up a desktop machine (not a laptop) with an Nvidia GPU and encrypted disk. 2. Open the 'Additional Drivers' app to install a supported Nvidia driver. 3. Reboot 4. Verify that you see the password prompt for decrypting the disk. [ Where problems could occur ] Removing the simpledrm card is only safe when it's not being used. If somehow a machine wasn't using the installed Nvidia driver then there could be a risk of deleting the only working display. One case where this could happen is if the Nvidia driver would allow being loaded even without any nvidia hardware present: if that is the case, "Regression Test Plan - Virtual machines" would fail.
