@Daniel van Vugt Yeah, when it was a fresh install. The grub boot loader displayed, and once it started booting into Ubuntu, the last line (in 'text' mode) was saying "changing into EFI VGA"; after that there were no monitor output, as if it were connected, but just a black display; and unlike a poorly configured X.conf, it was just black. No cursor, no switch to terminal (CTRL+ALT+F1)
I installed on a DisplayPort-to-Dvi monitor with a 1m cable, and then after the install finished and rebooted, I switched it back to DisplayPort connected to the LG 34" over a 15m cable. My screen was all flickering, pixelated line distortions flicker across the screen. It stopped after installing nvidia drivers -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1747488 Title: [GeForce GTX 1080] 17.10.1 DisplayPort 15m cable no display after starting "EFI VGA" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1747488/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
