I can confirm Kai-Heng Feng's comment, installing apt package nvidia-384 works fine.
My system has kernel versions 4.13.0-25-generic and 4.13.0-32-generic, with the additional headers and extras packages for both. When I install packages nvidia-387 or nvidia-390, the next boot results in a black screen and the need to reboot to root console to fix this situation by uninstalling the package. However, installing nvidia-384 results in the ability to boot to gnome desktop normally. After doing so with either kernel, I can confirm the nvidia driver is loaded from the output of: $ lspci -k | grep -A 2 -E "(VGA|3D)" Then, if I run: $ __GL_SYNC_TO_VBLANK=0 glxgears I see that the framerate for my 1080 ti card is over 28K fps (vs a lower rate when the nouveau driver is loaded). Finally -- I had no trouble booting to desktop after removing the apt package and installing the proprietary driver package version 390.25 (same minor version as the apt package) provided directly from nvidia's website for Linux 64-bit. I'm not recommending this, but pointing out that the driver scripts and software from the vendor do not have the problem exhibited by the apt package for versions 387 and 390, so there is most likely some problem with the post-install commands customized by the apt packages. I've reverted to the nvidia-384 apt package for the time being. If you do try the installer from the nvidia website, however, be sure you have 'cc' configured to run gcc and not clang, or else the compilation of the kernel module will fail.
