I'm also affected by that.

ASUS FX553VD-DM160

Core i7 7700 HQ
Gtx 1050
Mint 18.2

My solution is that ; don't install Nvidia prop drivers immediately.

First ; start using MDM instead of Lightdm. Because workaround above is
not working with it and you cannot even enter TTY screen.

Then install Nvidia drivers.

Change your gpu by using terminal with these commands:

sudo prime-select intel

or

sudo prime-select nvidia

and then

sudo reboot

Lightdm maintainers are not seemed interested so use MDM instead.
