Hi there, I've made it work. I don't know if it matters but I am using nvidia-390. So, first of all, we need to fix nvidia-persistenced. sudo cp /lib/systemd/system/nvidia-persistenced.service /etc/systemd/system sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/nvidia-persistenced.service Here we have to change '/usr/bin/nvidia-persistenced' to '/usr/lib/nvidia-390/bin/nvidia-persistenced'. Instead of 'nvidia-390' use your driver version. Then sudo systemctl daemon-reload Next we have to edit '/etc/gdm3/PostSession/Default'. This script is run as 'root' after logout. sudo nano /etc/gdm3/PostSession/Default and make it look like this: #!/bin/sh /etc/gdm3/Prime/Default /etc/gdm3/PrimeOff/Default exit 0 This should do it. If prime still doesn't work for you, I also have 'nouveau.modeset=0 rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau' on GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub.

[Bug 1705369] Re: Ubuntu 17.10 boots to black screen when using Nvidia drivers (on a desktop with an Intel GPU)
gdm3 and nvidia binary drivers don't work together yet. Maybe 18.04 although there's not much evidence that anyone who knows how to fix this problem is working on it. This problem has emerged since the default Ubuntu session now uses gdm3 (as of 17.10) but standard gnome users on all recent distribution have the same problem. The best solution is to replace gdm3 with lightdm. (sudo apt install lightdm) You can install both display managers and swap between them with dpkg-reconfigure lightdm (or dpkg-reconfigure gdm3) and obviously choose lightdm You don't seem to lose anything by using lightdm instead of gdm3. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1705369 Title: Ubuntu 17.10 boots to black screen when using Nvidia drivers (on a desktop with an Intel GPU) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1705369/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ok found finally a work solution (I bet for most of you :)) https://gist.github.com/wangruohui/df039f0dc434d6486f5d4d098aa52d07 Basically skip all the nvidia repository ppa. Install lightdm.

Now I have shining GTX1060 running on Ubuntu 17.10 :) BTW I noticed that the ppa drivers do not create /dev/dri/card0! that is the main issue (that loops in Xorg login).

It has been clear for a while now that Ubuntu actually has a 2-year release cycle. I have used ubuntu since 8.10, always using the most recent release but since 10.04 I have considered that LTS stands for long term STABLE because of exactly this kind of problem with 17.10. So I now consider the non-LTS releases to be a "dev/tester" release. Ubuntu doesn't officially say that, but I notice that if you go to the download page, 16.04.3 is the first option available. I think that Canonical should just be honest about it. I would still use the "dev/test" releases and they could take more risks. When I recommend an ubuntu distro to a new user, I will usually recommend the LTS because I don't want them to have to mess around and be put off.

Greetings, this bug is also affecting my brand new fresh clean install of Ubuntu 17.10 to my Dell XPS 15 laptop. I have gone thru this thread and have tried every single trick/hack and nothing allows the machine to boot successfully once the Nvidia drivers are installed. In fact, I am facing consisten boot loops no matter which driver I install. I was also unsuccessful in being able to log in wiht lightdm, even though the machine did successfullly boot to the lightdm login screen after Nvidia-375 was installed. I was wondering if I should try a different kernel than the one that ships with 17.10??

[Bug 1705369] Re: Ubuntu 17.10 boots to black screen when using Nvidia drivers (on a desktop with an Intel GPU)
I have installed 17.10 in a virtual box (have an nvidia card in my pc, not sure what virtual box detects as, in a windows host), and been updating it daily to check out the 17.10 progression. It was fine for a few weeks, but then about a week ago I would install, and then boot - all good, and then I would do an apt update and upgrade. Once I reboot after an upgrade, I get a black login, then if I press enter, enter my password and press enter again, I get the brief screen with text (like when it worked) and then black again. I'm thinking this is the same issue? Or in this issue is everyone booting to black immediately after install? I have been downloading the daily builds, so it's not an old image I am installing from. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1705369 Title: Ubuntu 17.10 boots to black screen when using Nvidia drivers (on a desktop with an Intel GPU) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1705369/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1705369] Re: Ubuntu 17.10 boots to black screen when using Nvidia drivers (on a desktop with an Intel GPU)
My first attempt at reproducing this bug has failed. I am using an Nvidia Quadro K620 card in a desktop where I usually just use the integrated Intel graphics. And I have installed nvidia-375 375.66-0ubuntu1. The result is that Ubuntu 17.10 boots perfectly. VTs are using efifb. GDM and gnome-shell both start using Xorg automatically and the Wayland options have been hidden. Perhaps I would need to test a newer card that's more difficult for software support?

[Bug 1705369] Re: Ubuntu 17.10 boots to black screen when using Nvidia drivers (on a desktop with an Intel GPU)
OK, Alberto on the upstream bug says it is not the same as my bug, because the upstream bug is for systems with only an nvidia card. Mine is an Optimus bug. His point is, I think, that gdm chooses wayland based on the modesetting value of the first card it sees, which in the case of an Optimus laptop is the intel video, and the upstream bug is only for situations where the first card is nvidia, which means it can't apply to Optimus laptops. However, it seemed the same to me because Wayland and nvidia modesetting don't seem to work in 17.04 or 17.10. If I can help at all with testing please let me know.
