How to change the video driver using command line?



Using ubuntu 16.04, the way I see my content is :
sudo ubuntu-drivers devices the output would be something like that:


sudo ubuntu-drivers devices


== /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0 ==

vendor : NVIDIA Corporation
modalias : pci:v000010DEd00000DDAsv000017AAsd000021D1bc03sc00i00
model : GF106GLM [Quadro 2000M]
driver : xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - distro free builtin
driver : nvidia-304-updates - distro non-free
driver : nvidia-304 - distro non-free
driver : nvidia-331 - distro non-free recommended
driver : nvidia-331-updates - distro non-free



So far so good and I'm referring to the second answer here https://askubuntu.com/questions/335285/how-to-change-proprietary-video-driver-using-the-command-line however the next step I want is just changing the driver not installing it which whoever answered that question got that part wrong.
How can I do it?





Wrong site. You're looking for Ask Ubuntu instead. This site is for programming related questions, not general computer or OS support. More info is available in the help center.

Hystrix command on request collapser fallback

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Hystrix command on request collapser fallback I have a scenario where I want to apply hystrix on the fallback (and process one-by-one) of a hystrix request collapser's batch method. The fallback method ( processEntryBatch_fallback ) is invoked. But the hystrix command ( processEntryBackup ) in turn the fallback invokes is not reported (doesn't even appear on dashboard). And the fallback method ( finalFallback ) is not invoked either. I would like to know what am I missing here ? I referred javanica documentation processEntryBatch_fallback processEntryBackup finalFallback @Service public class DummyService private static final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(DummyService.class); //batch processing method public void processEntry(List<String> msg) //batch processing throw new RuntimeException("Exception while batch processing"); //processing one-by-one @HystrixCommand(fallbackMethod="finalFallback") public ...
