[Bug 1632322] Re: Computer never gets to the GDM3 login screen when nvidia- is installed
This is configuration/initialization bug. What happens is: - during startup gnome-shell is getting started and tries to initialize wayland session, which it cannot, because of lacking support in libraries - gdm and gnome-session-manager don't see gnome-shell running and also fail to start. Normally gdm and gnome-shell must fallback to X.Org mode, which they apparently don't do on Ubuntu and simply try several more times and fail completely.

[Bug 1632322] Re: Computer never gets to the GDM3 login screen when nvidia- is installed
Decided to try Ubuntu-gnome on my desktop and then after I installed the Nvidia driver using the driver manager and rebooted, GDM would not start and I was left at a blank screen.

The proposed solution #1631089 - from one user's machine makes no difference on mine.

Apparently, gdm3 has a setting to use something else than Wayland. Using this setting on an Xorg machine changes nothing. At boot, the display manager tries to start six times before giving up. There is no apparent logging. We should conclude that in its current packaging, GDM3 is incompatible with proprietary display drivers... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1632322 Title: Computer never gets to the GDM3 login screen when nvidia- is installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1632322/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1632322] Re: Computer never gets to the GDM3 login screen when nvidia- is installed
Re #5 and #6: According to bug #1631089 it seems to affect 16.04 as well, though I cannot remember ever running into this problem when I ran 16.04. Possibly because I already had ubuntu-gnome-default-settings (16.04.4) installed. I can't be sure, because all sorts of things have changed between installations (including what PPAs I use). Anyway, it seems, now that I'm on 16.10, that I do have ubuntu-gnome- default-settings (16.10.5) installed but I ran into this anyway. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1632322 Title: Computer never gets to the GDM3 login screen when nvidia- is installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1632322/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
