The work-around suggested in #29 worked for me. That's using the Graphics Drivers PPA (https://launchpad.net/~graphics- drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa).
Just to be clear about the symptoms I was seeing: - The splash screen DID appear - LightDM would NOT appear (just a black, blank screen) - I could go to a virtual terminal and start the desktop with "startx" - I had no problems with the Nouveau drivers only the proprietary drivers However, lightdm works fine with the nvidia-390 package from the Graphics Drivers PPA. The hardware is an Asus GL-553-VD laptop with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Mobile. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1752053 Title: nvidia-390 fails to boot graphical display To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390/+bug/1752053/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
