hc3Hi guys. Does anyone know how to properly install Nvidia driver so it doesn't cause "black screen" pc is stuck during boot in09:03
hc3It seems to be common issue. But I couldn't find solution for that09:04

Spasshello hc3, how do you install your drivers? I've installed mine using default GUI Additional Drivers - /usr/bin/software-properties-gtk --open-tab=409:25
Spassthen I've checked nvidia-driver-390 metapackage, also - what card do you have?09:26
hc3Spass, first time as you did and second time using ppa09:28
hc3I have geforce gt 740m09:29
hc3Both times with same result. Had to recover via grub console and 2nd time using liveusb09:30
hc3Btw have you been asked for password during driver installation?09:31
SpassIt's a mobile card, so maybe the issue is somewhat related to Optimus, not sure. Another way to recover is to remove nvidia-driver-390 (or -396) package from tty1 (Ctrl+Alt+F1) when you see the black screen, then upon next reboot you should be using Nouveau again. I'm not sure about the password, but probably yes.09:35
hc3Yeah no problems with recovery itself. Just want to make that driver work09:36
hc3Is it may be good idea to install optimus on its own and test it?09:37
SpassWhat comes to my mind is disabling Intel GPU from the BIOS if that's possible or trying Nvidia Primie (nvidia-prime).09:37
SpassMaybe it always uses your integrated Intel card on boot, so it conflicts with "nvidia" driver09:39
hc3Let me check if there is option to disable intel gpu in bios...09:40
SpassBut unfortunately I don't have much experience in that matter, so you should wait for someone more knowledgable to respond, and since it's not really Xubuntu-only issue you can try on #ubuntu too.09:40
Iolohc3, adding nomodeset to my kernel line in grub fixed that issue for me09:41
hc3Spass, i appreciate any help )09:42
hc3Lolo, done that. Got screen tesring back, no control over brightness, dysplays were both unclaimed...09:43
hc3Tearing*09:43
hc3Nothing related to gpu in bios. That brings me to idea of manual switching between gpus. And in general, isolation of parts installed with driver to pinpoint the failure09:50
hc3If someone could guide me.. for I'm a noob10:14
brainwashhc3: I suggest that you ask in #ubuntu10:47
krybescan anyone help with gpu drivers install? nvidia drivers won't work even on fresh 18.04 installation10:57
hc3Hey krybes how exactly it does not work?10:59
krybesx server settings won't launch for example10:59
hc3Thought you have same issue as I have with that driver. Black screen11:00
krybesoh no, I have my native resolution and all, but the driver itself isn't working11:00
krybesif i use lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 it only shows the intel chipset though11:02
krybeshowever if i use prime-select query it prints "nvidia"11:02
Lokiehello! I am running xubuntu 18.04.1 4.15.0-38-generic with bluetooth keyboard and wireless mouse11:41
LokieOn local network when I am receiving max traffic (17Mbit/s - due to powerline) everything is fine.11:42
LokieWhen transmitting I get ~5Mbit/s and the keyboard / mouse lags really hard11:43
Lokiecpu stays stable with no real usage11:43
LokieI understand that 2.4GHz wifi can conflict with the mouse & bluetooth, but any idea why it's happening on tx only?11:44
hc3Lokie, On tx router is emitting radio energy, on rx it just listen.. or almost like that because tcp means transmitting back kind of checksum12:10
hc3If you are looking for solution, I would recommend to try another wifi channel12:13
hc3Oh, pc transmits too..12:15
Lokiethe values I meantioned are all my laptop. So laptop rx from powerline @ 17Mbit/s and laptop tx to powerline @ 5Mbit/s12:31
