I cannot boot Ubuntu 22.04 after installing latest Nvidia driver

Graphics / Linux Linux

My OS is Ubuntu 22.04.2, kernel version is 6.1.0-1009-oem (I tried the default 5.19.0-40-generic and result is the same). I turned off Secure Boot in UEFI. If I select Nvidia driver using the sudo prime-select nvidia command, then I can only enter the terminal in recovery mode using Ctrl + Alt + F2, otherwise the system boots only to the black screen with the Ubuntu logo and the boot circle does not spin. dkms status and nvidia-smi commands show no problems

I have already tried the following methods:
disabling security boot
reinstalling driver 530 and reboot
installing the driver by different methods (Software & updates, .run file, terminal command)
installing nvidia-dkms-530
installing previous version of the driver
installing new version of kernel
commands sudo update-initramfs -u and sudo apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
removing blacklist nvidiafb line from /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer.conf

There seems to be something wrong with your intel igpu. Please use the liquorix ppa to update to latest kernel, remove the nvidia driver, reboot and provide a dmesg output.

I removed the nvidia driver and updated the kernel via liquorix ppa, dmesg output in the attachment

The igpu seems to work fine now, please install the 530 driver using Software&Updates now.

I installed the 530 driver (not open one) and rebooted the system and I still can’t boot. Secure Boot is disabled. I believe the problem is in the graphics mode that I can choose in the BIOS. I have Lenovo Legion 5i Pro laptop and I can choose between Dynamic Graphics and Discrete Graphics, and in the Discrete Graphics mode I can boot the system. Dynamic Graphics allows to switch between GPUs without rebooting, and since I use two systems, I’d like to keep this feature on Windows. is it possible to fix this for Ubuntu? I have attached the log of nvidia-bug-report.sh

Please delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf

I deleted /etc/X11/xorg.conf, still cannot boot in Dynamic Graphics mode. nvidia-bug-report.sh output the attachment

Can you switch to a vt when in dynamic mode and not in recovery?

No, i can’t open any terminal, I can only see some kind of log

Can you ssh into the system from another computer to create a log?

I was having similar issues, for me a driver downgrade to 470 fixed the problem.

apt list '*nvidia-driver*'
sudo apt-get purge '*nvidia*'
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-470

I connected via ssh from another computer and ran nvidia-bug-report.sh while in dynamic mode, the log in attachment

The dmesg looks fine, no errors, drivers functional. Since no X session gets started, maybe a defunct wayland session is running.
Please try disabling wayland in gdm config or check journalctl over ssh what gnome-shell is doing.

I’ve already disabled wayland before, I attach the latest journalctl output

systemd tells it started gdm but gdm does exactly nothing, not even issueing an error. No idea what’s going on. Does a dowgrade to driver 525 work?

Downgrade of the drivers didn’t help, I guess I’ll just use discrete graphics mode for Ubuntu. Using iGPU (Intel GPU in my case) in dynamic mode is also an option
