Bug Description

I use ubuntu 18.04 on Toshiba notebook with Nvidia card.
When i use Nouveau Driver the screen resolution is set to very low value: 640 x 480 (4:3) and is not possible to change it.

If i use NVidia property driver the resolution is set correctly.

I attach files with the output of commands: lspci, uname -a, cpuinfo, lshw

Thanks !
