[Bug 1756226] Re: nvidia-driver-390 fails to start GUI

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-drivers-common - 1:0.5.1

---
ubuntu-drivers-common (1:0.5.1) bionic; urgency=medium

  * debian/control:
- Build depend on dh-python.
- Drop dh-systemd, and use debhelper (>= 9.20160709).
  * tests/ubuntu_drivers.py:
- Raise time to 40.0 for i386 in
  test_system_driver_packages_performance().
  * NvidiaDetector/nvidiadetector.py:
- Fix crash with new name scheme of the NVIDIA
  packages (LP: #1054458).
  * gpu-manager.(c|py):
- Create a xorg.conf.d file for systems with PRIME.
  This way we can drop the PrimaryGpu option from
  the main NVIDIA configuration xorg.conf.d snippet,
  and generate an additional custom snippet on demand
  with that option, to avoid causing problems on systems
  with multiple NVIDIA GPUs (LP: #1756226).

[Alberto Milone]

The main problem here is that the PrimaryGPU option, that we use for
system Intel+NVIDIA, causes problems on systems with multiple NVIDIA
GPUs.

I am working on a solution.

Commenting out PrimaryGPU also worked on my 2 GPU system.  It might be
time to patch the driver so we don't have to do this manually.  I'm so
happy.  It took 5 weeks before we found a fix.

actually, simply comment out the line that says Option "PrimaryGPU"

and leave the file where it is.

help? (also, remove your xorg.conf, just in case)

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.

[Bug 1756226] Re: nvidia-driver-390 fails to start GUI

[Brendan Dibbell]

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.

[Bug 1756226] Re: nvidia-driver-390 fails to start GUI

[Brendan Dibbell]

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. Will keep trying.

Maybe X autoconfiguration is not helping. If you have multiple nvidia
GPUs, maybe try the following:

sudo nvidia-xconfig --multigpu=on

There are other options that you can try, for example, if you use SLI:

I have the same issue on Ubuntu MATE 18.04 (daily) which uses lightdm,
via slick-greeter, as the display manager on my XPS 15 which has Intel
IGP and nvidia GTX 960M.

Ever since the upgrade to nvidia-driver-390 vt7 is a blank screen on
boot when the nvidia drivers are installed. The only way to get the
display manager to present is to entirely remove the nvidia drivers.

LightDM is installed for the login screen.  I have tried installing gdm3
but it didn't help.

I don't see GDM, Gnome shell, or anything else that should give you a

If you are using GDM, can you attach the output of this command, please?

systemctl status gdm3.service
