Ubuntu Budgie 19.04 randomly starts with wrong resolution and nVidia driver fails to load.

[T. Kulho]

Ubuntu Budgie 19.04 starts with wrong resolution (1024x768) when 1920x1080 is the native resolution. When trying to manually start nVidia (418) control center it does not load. This happens randomly and most times the OS starts with correct resolution and nVidia driver loads properly. After a failure, log-out and log-in solves the problem.
