This question is in the following by this question. Before with Linux Mint LMDE update, I had an Nouveau error, sticking in login loop, no sound driver found and no Ethernet icon in network manger which i think was from my NVIDIA driver incompatibility with Linux new version for nouveau part problem, hence my switch to Ubuntu 18.04.
I tried adding nomdeset in grub file with pressing E button at first boot option of my dual boot (Win & Linux) and with pressing ALt+Ctrl+F3 i could go to terminal environment and run sudo startx
to have access to root, i have also tried to change my /home
permission changing as said here and here ,but it don't solved my problem, i have also tried sudo apt-get update & sudo apt-get upgrade
by adding
so i found better community via Ubuntu, now i installed Ubuntu by this instruction and some of my system info's are here:

root@so-notebook:~#
Like this (Excuses me because of low quality photo which i could not take screen shut from my Linux!!!):
It also have found nvidia-driver-440
as recommended
as you could see here:
root@so-notebook:~# sudo ubuntu-drivers devices

So in software Updates have this configuration:
So as you can see it have been installed but nvidia-smi
said:
root@so-notebook:~# nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
So i will try reboot, but according my previous experiences i guess it don't working and i must reinstall NVIDIA driver with sudo apt purge nvidia*
.
So could i only run my Linux with Intel driver? why many drivers corrupted in Linux Ubuntu also like Ethernet,sound and login loop ?!!!
Update:
So as i thought it don't worked with nvidia-driver-440
which recommended by Ubuntu Auto driver instillation !!! i have used sudo apt purge nvidia*
and i could run 'sudo startx
but before of that when i run that command it hang after some codes which don't show any error message.
According @Michal_Przybylowicz Comment the output of grep -i "nvidia" /var/log/Xorg.0.log
when i deleted the NVIDIA driver is:
root@so-notebook:~# grep -i "nvidia" /var/log/Xorg.0.log
