You telling me you couldn’t install nvidia drivers on Ubuntu? It’s one of the friendlies distros for new users out there.
Official instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaDriversInstallation
TLDR: “sudo ubuntu-drivers install” if that fails read the instructions.
I had the same issue this that site. I think it is caused by ad block. I browse the internet with Firefox that have ad blocking addons installed, but always have Chrome installed without any adddons to test sites just in case. And on chrome it worked OK.
