runing Ubuntu with nvidia cards

in linux •  7 years ago 

I will try to post as I possibly can:

If your ubuntu boot hangs on boot, starting from 16.04 and up, and you have an nvidia card, the following:
Hit "e" on grub go where you find "quiet splash" and add: nouveau.modeset=0
This should boot your ubuntu,
After installing ubuntu, you can add it by editing the file: /etc/default/grub
Find GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" and add it there,
Good luck

Darn it, mine still doesn't boot with the nvidia drivers, I have to remove them to get past a user error :(

Hope one day they all get together and make something like android/nvidia.... Good luck
