Ubuntu – How to fix ubuntu load screen after install nvidia driver (331,38)

driversnvidiaproprietary

I installed nvidia proprietary driver (331.38 on ubuntu 14.04 by sudo apt-get install nvidia-331) and now the Ubuntu load screen is with a bad resolution (640×480). I followed some recommendations from previous questions but I can not increase the resolution. I would like to return to 1920×1080 resolution.

I had this problem a few days ago, removing the xorg.conf created by Nvidia seems to fix the problem. Execute the commands below after pressing CTRL+ALT+F1 on GDM screen or within GNOME.

sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old
sudo touch /etc/X11/xorg.conf
