| ducasse | hi all \o | 07:16 |
| BluesKaj | Hey folks | 12:15 |
| daftykins | has anyone gotten to the bottom of the issue yet, where if someone has installed an nvidia driver, when they enter their password at the login screen, it thinks for a moment then kicks them back out? | 22:32 |
| OerHeks | no kernel headers? | 22:33 |
| daftykins | hrmm | 22:35 |
| daftykins | so that would be a failed module build? | 22:35 |
| Bashing-om | daftykins: I have 3 other posters with similar issue .. just for info - that to this time with a number of expedients I have not resolved . Pssibility does exist that we "Have" a problem with nVidia . | 22:37 |
| daftykins | mmm, i installed xubuntu once on a bare metal box many months ago from 14.04.5 media (so HWE kernel on there) and saw the issue myself, i ended up just reinstalling from 14.04.1 media to be without an HWE | 22:39 |
| daftykins | anyway, came up over in #kodi just now and seemed like a puzzle we've seen many times too, yeah :) | 22:39 |
| Bashing-om | Each time I mess with re-install Nvida driver ... I hold my breath . | 22:41 |
| daftykins | you would love it on Fedora ;) even worse | 22:42 |
| daftykins | you have to boot in and blacklist nouveau, change the runlevel to init 3 (because i couldn't work out how to stop X on there) then run the installer binary by hand before rebooting and X coming up fine | 22:43 |
| Bashing-om | daftykins: Now ya get a idea why I do like ubuntu ... I have messed around a bit some years back .. ubuntu was a breath of fresh air . I had the greatest amount of difficulty in understanding not to make things difficult . | 22:51 |
| daftykins | oh i had the same as i was taught on debian, i found every package i installed and tried to use had defaults that stopped it from even being usable | 22:52 |
| daftykins | install a package on *buntu, it works out of the box (usually) | 22:53 |
