[Bug 1756226] Re: nvidia-driver-390 fails to start GUI
Update: I am able to get X video if I boot with the monitor plugged into GPU1 and then switch the cable to GPU0 (according to nvidia settings) TTY/UEFI video only works with the cable plugged into GPU1 (since this is my motherboard's first PCI slot) X video only works with the cable plugged into GPU0. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1756226 Title: nvidia-driver-390 fails to start GUI To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390/+bug/1756226/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

After doing that I can no longer switch to tty1 and get video, so I'll probably have to start over before trying some more. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1756226 Title: nvidia-driver-390 fails to start GUI To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390/+bug/1756226/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Interestingly, my Motherboard's GPU0 is detected as GPU1 in nvidia- xconfig, and vice versa. Relevant lines from Xorg log: [22.370] (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): The NVIDIA graphics device PCI:8:0:0 bound to this SLI X [22.370] (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): screen is not the SLI parent device. This configuration [22.370] (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): is not currently supported. Please add 'BusID [22.370] (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): "PCI:67:0:0"' to the SLI "Device" section in the X [22.370] (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): configuration file. [23.555] (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Only one GPU will be used for this X screen. So I added that line to Xorg.conf, and now my screen keeps turning on and off. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1756226 Title: nvidia-driver-390 fails to start GUI To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390/+bug/1756226/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1756226] Re: nvidia-driver-390 fails to start GUI
Interestingly, I didn't even have an xorg.conf before, apparently. Running standard nvidia-xconfig autogenerates an xorg.conf with both of the following: Option "MultiGPU" "on" Option "SLI" "on". I tried removing the SLI bridge from my computer and having just "MultiGPU" on but that didn't work either. So far nothing has resulted in video output.

[Bug 1756226] Re: nvidia-driver-390 fails to start GUI
Update: I removed one GPU and the problem was resolved.

Exactly the same setup as @dbonner and have exactly the same results.
