I just tried again to test if nvidia updates would fix this ugly bug. In summary: no.
I also tried the graphics-drivers ppa mentioned (specifically tried the 340 and 390 drivers) with the same negative results. The only working solution for my nvidia-prime laptop (nvidia+intel) is using nouveau+Wayland. Nvidia does not work at all. This is suboptimal as Wayland is less stable and there is a performance penalty when using nouveau. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1773113 Title: nvidia-390 does not show GUI Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I know this bug is a duplicate, I am opening it because it seems that for # #1752053 it is marked as "Fix Released" although many people are still affected and complaining about it and nobody can or will change that status. So it is an attempt to raise more attention, as HDMI currently isn't usable for me on Ubuntu 18.04 (it affected me on 16.04 as well). Put in short, after Nvidia drivers are installed and I switch from Nvidia card to the intel one, the GUI can't be opened anymore To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390/+bug/1773113/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
