Driver for GeForce GTX 1050 Mobile

Graphics / Linux Linux

Please help.
After installing NVidia drivers, ubuntu boots with black screen or login screen that freezes.

I tried installing different driver versions. 390, 418, 440, 450, 460. I tried installing via the software & updates additional drivers GUI and with cmd via ppa.nvidia-bug-report.log.gz (165.6 KB)

Please delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf or any file whose name begins with it.

Thank you, but after reloading, the size of the screen isn’t right, with drivers > 400 I can’t even see the login prompt. 390 seems to be working right but it doesn’t detect the external display.

4

Any suggestions?

5

Please create a new nvidia-bug-report.log.

@generix Sure, nvidia-bug-report.log.gz (222.8 KB)

@generix, any suggestions?

Not having the external monitor with the 390 driver is a known bug with the old driver, workaround

Why you’re getting the odd display with the 460 driver is new to me, the logs look fine for it. I’ll have to take a closer look at it tomorrow.

10

Can you switch to VT (ctrl+alt+f4) while seeing only the backgroud with the 460 driver and create a new nvidia-bug-report.log?

@generix any suggestions?

Please help, it’s really important for me.

14

@generix ?

I don’t really know what’s going on with the 460 driver, the Xserver is coming up correctly but gnome-shell doesn’t seem to start.
Please run
sudo journalctl -b0 |grep gnome-shell >journal.txt
while bootng with the 460 driver and attach journal.txt.
Also, please post the output of

Mysterious, gnome-shell seems to start just fine but I don’t know where, the nvidia gpu is only running the Xserver. Please try creating two files optimus.desktop in /etc/xdg/autostart/ and /usr/share/gdm3/greeter/autostart/ containing

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Optimus
Exec=sh -c "xrandr --setprovideroutputsource modesetting NVIDIA-0; xrandr --auto"
NoDisplay=true
X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=DisplayServer

I did but the situation is the same.;(

  1. Added this file into 2 directories;
  2. Switched to nvidia;
  3. Rebooted.

No idea. You could try switching to lightdm instead of gdm.
