搞砸了 Nvidia 驱动程序，无法修复它

Question

Operational system: Lubuntu 18.04 // upgraded forcefully from 16.04
    architeture: amd64 
    Video graphic card: GeForce 7200 GS / 7300 SE

一切正常，但有时当我在 YOuTube [in G. Chromer] 上观看视频时，屏幕冻结，只有视频继续播放，甚至尝试打开/关闭 Num/Caps Lock 键也没什么，所以发生这种情况时我不得不重新启动计算机。我认为问题可能出在驱动程序上，所以我认为我应该重新安装驱动程序。我清除了 nvidia 驱动程序，并尝试重新安装它，但它搞砸了一切。现在我的屏幕是宽屏和拉伸，图像很糟糕。我尝试再次重新安装驱动程序 [通过 apt-get install 和 aptitude install] 但安装驱动程序后没有任何实际发生。

我无法打开 Nvidia X 服务器设置 [它在菜单中，如果我点击它什么也不会发生]。我使用的一些命令及其输出：

nvidia-settings

 ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system

.

$ lsmod | grep nvidia
$: command not found

.

$ sudo lshw -c display
  *-display UNCLAIMED

我该怎么办？我在这个网站上寻找了许多解决方案，但没有一个对我有用。

任何帮助，将不胜感激。

编辑：我尝试了特伦斯的链接步骤，我得到了什么：

$ nvidia-settings

ERROR: NVIDIA driver is not loaded


ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system


$ nvidia-smi

Command 'nvidia-smi' not found, but can be installed with:

sudo apt install nvidia-340      
sudo apt install nvidia-utils-390

我仍然无法打开 NVidia Server X 设置，也无法更改屏幕大小等内容。哦，支持我的显卡的最新驱动程序是 304，所以我认为安装这些不支持我的显卡的驱动程序可能会更糟。命令“lsmod | grep nvidia”不返回任何输出。

编辑²：尝试过

$ nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with NVIDIA driver. Make sure that latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

Answer 1

sudo apt-get install --重新安装 xserver-xorg-core libgl1-mesa-glx

Answer 2

nvidia-304 驱动程序已从 18.04 中删除，因为它不再受支持，并且内核 4.15 不会编译它。这是一个补丁，但我还没有测试它 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-304/+bug/1737750

Nouveau 是 ubuntu 提供的选项，但我可能会遇到一些问题，例如 Kodi 不支持 nouveau。更多信息：
