issue after install of new graphic card Mate 18.04.4

scott - Hello

The gtx 1650 card is supported and takes the 430 version driver:
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/146629/en-us

And it is available in the repository:
"sysop@x1804mini:~$ apt list nvidia-driver-430
Listing... Done
nvidia-driver-430/bionic-updates 430.50-0ubuntu0.18.04.2 amd64
sysop@x1804mini:~$ "

That begs the question as to why your system does not find the driver.

Boot the install with either the nomodeset boot parameter - or - in the recovery console
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters

Does the kernel see the card; what drivers are loaded ?

Post back the output of terminal commands:
lspci -k | grep -iEA5 'vga|3d'
sudo lshw -C display
dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia
uname -r
for diagnostic purposes

-got to be a reason-

The Nvidia x server setting say the 430.05 driver is in use at the moment.
It's crazy the hoops I had to go through just to get those installed. Now
granted, I could have installed those through the terminal doing the whole
ppa thing, but now that Mate and I guess most all the Ubuntu types have the
proprietary drivers in the additional drivers now.I do prefer the new ways
of doing things over the old way.. It looks like they are installed I
guess. Now since I had to use the old GPU to install these would the
drivers still work for the new card too? From what I've read, when you put
a new graphic card in you should do a fresh install of the drivers for that
card..

Great thanks for all your help.
I'll do a fresh install on the drivers. It's just so odd how this setup
with this new card is reacting with the is. It acts kind of buggy at times.
I had to remove a "system program problem detected" on startup. It's almost
like it doesn't know what kind of card it is. My old 750ti was everywhere
,Nvidia setting a rundown of system setting. It was everywhere.. This has a
generic "graphics card" everywhere. I have yet to see that this is a 1650
super lol.

The reinstall worked. Now it has 1650 super everywhere :)

Thanks Bashing-om, that solved my question.
