Can you provide more details in your question? "Where did I go wrong" would be significantly easier to solve if you could state some relevant events that happened before you noticed the issue.

I think you and I had the same problem. For me it was fixed by following this question (Nvidia driver 410 listed by ppa and ubuntu-drivers but does not seem to be installable via apt) and installing the appropriate Nividia drivers. Go to Software & Updates on your computer, open the Additional Drivers window. Take note of the Nvidia product number (mine is GeForce 840M version 410.78). Then go to https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx enter your product info into the drop menus the press Search. Download the package.
Next clear out your old drivers in terminal with,
apt-get purge 'nvidia*'
use cd to navigate to your Downloads folder and enter the following (with your product numbers) into terminal.
sudo chmod +x NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-410.66.run `
sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-410.66.run
sudo reboot`
