| InventorTechie | filyforasec did you try Unity Tweak Tool and then look under the extensions tab? | 01:32 |
|---|---|---|
| pchoo | jbicha: I notice there was recently some updates to the gdm/nvidia bug thread. The discussion on the xorg -legacy dependency seems to suggest that adding it allows for nvidia drivers to be installed and used properly? Have I followed that correctly? | 14:25 |
| jbicha | pchoo: yes, I believe that's all that's needed, do you want to try to see if that fixes the issue for you? | 15:04 |
| jbicha | the only reason I didn't add the dependendency to gnome-shell in 16.10 and 16.04 is because darkxst indicated that it caused a regression for him when he tested it | 15:05 |
| jbicha | Ubuntu's nvidia maintainer is fairly busy now and there's a lot of packages that would need to be updated to add that dependency to the nvidia-* packages directly | 15:06 |
| pchoo | jbicha: well, technically it has worked, in that I can now see gdm3, but unfortunately I am having some other issues. Nvidia persistence daemon is failing to start, and now when I log in I get a black screen and unresponsive laptop... Whoops! Time to revert haha | 15:38 |
| jbicha | is that issue caused by installing that package? | 15:41 |
| jbicha | gnome-shell currently Recommends xserver-xorg-legacy in Ubuntu 17.04 Beta | 15:42 |
| pchoo | jbicha: I'm not sure. Mostly because either jumped the gun and tried to install bumblebee at the same time, which was my bad. I'm trying to unpick that | 15:42 |
| pchoo | So I kinda messed up | 15:43 |
| pchoo | I also tried to install some Intel stuff, I think that might be causing other issues | 15:47 |
| pchoo | Ok, i've got my desktop working again | 15:49 |
| pchoo | the boot up appears to be slowed down by something bluetooth related timing out, and I think that's related to the intel stuff I installed | 15:50 |
| pchoo | but I have gdm3 booting Ok now, but i'm using the nouveau driver | 15:50 |
| jbicha | 16.10? | 15:51 |
| pchoo | 16.04 | 15:52 |
| pchoo | Hmm, Ok, I've seemingly removed the intel graphics update tool, and now I'm getting a timeout on "starting wpa supplicant". , and had a failure on starting some network manager service, I think, it flashed up quickly before it loaded gdm3 | 15:59 |
| jbicha | journalctl sould let you see those error messages and more | 16:00 |
| pchoo | jbicha: thanks, although I'm not sure what I'm looking for | 16:03 |
| pchoo | jbicha: or anyone else who can help, since removing the nvidia and intel-graphics-update-tool stuff, I now have a 30s timeout on boot, and systemd-analyze blame points at NetworkManager-wait-online.service - any idea how I can diagnose this? | 16:12 |
| jbicha | I recommend you ask in a different channel, maybe #ubuntu-desktop or #ubuntu-devel to start with | 16:18 |
| pchoo | Ok, thanks, I'll check in with them tomorrow, work day is almost over now] | 16:20 |
| pchoo | jbicha: well, at the end of all of that, i've now got nvidia-375 and xserver-xorg-legacy both installed, and it's now letting me load gdm3 and boot into my desktop. I'll be investigating the network stuff tomorrow, thanks for all your help! | 16:29 |
