I install NVIDIA driver in ubuntu 16.04, get the error message: Unable to load the 'nvidia-drm' kernel module
Some error in dmsg:
[ 155.904924] nvidia 0000:02:00.0: Refused to change power state, currently in D3

NVRM: immediately upstream of this GPU does not define
NVRM: a matching prefetchable memory window.
[ 155.905012] NVRM: This may be due to a known Linux kernel bug. Please

it seems that the NVIDIA card doesn't get the memory the bios tells the kernel it wants, it gets remapped and then the drivers fails.
My machine is ThinkPad S5 (with NVIDIA GTK 1050 Ti), I have disabled the secure boot in the BIOS.
