Title:
Nvidia driver does not work in Ubuntu GNOME trusty "14.04" (Optimus
laptop)
Status in GNOME Shell:
Unknown
Status in “gnome-shell” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Environment:
Asus Laptop U36JC
Ubuntu GNOME 14.04, the Trusty Tahr, (AMD64)
I realized there were bugs "Bug #1262068" and "Bug #1283439". I am not
sure if they are the same to my problem or not.
In Bug #1283439, it's about using lightdm. but I am running Ubuntu Gnome. The
problem happens in gdm rather than lightdm.
In Bug #1262068, it says the bug is fixed. I tried "sudo apt-get update and
then upgrade", the problem exists.
I installed nvidia driver by "sudo apt-get install nvidia-331".
Before installing nvidia driver, everything works fine under intel driver.
After installing nvidia driver, I can only see a black screen. gdm can not be
loaded. I tried to switch to lightdm. lightdm can be loaded, but I can not
enter gnome with lightdm.
