Asus ROG Nvidia driver not loaded

I can't get my laptop to use the Nvidia videocard. (Ubuntu 18.04)


Running sudo lshw -C video shows:

Secure boot has been disabled already. I have the graphics-drivers ppa setup and tried nvidia-390, nvidia-396 and some others.
In the software and updates screen, the drivers tab only lists


NVIDIA Corporation: GP107M [GeForce GTX 1050 Mobile]
[x] NVIDIA driver metapackage van nvidia-driver-390 gebruiken
[ ] X.Org X server - Nouveau driver van xserver-xorg-video-nouveau gebruiken

So it doesn't list Intel integrated graphics.


The following file exists:


/etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf

Are there any things left to try? I've seen a lot of "Driver not loaded" threads already and none of the solutions worked for me.
