SO, since I don't know that much .....
On one of my computers (HP s3720f) my display disappeared completely. I
tried a bunch of things. The last thing I tried seem to work:

$ sudo apt-get --purge remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
$ sudo ubuntu-drivers devices
A list of drivers will appear. Pick a driver to install and...
sudo apt-get install nvidia-172 (for example)

Interestingly enough, this computer (HP s3720f) has not complained about
any updates since ... at least not yet!!!
