Having more or less the same bug as anybody here, but with final Bionic 18.04.
I tried what proposed on #29 and #47 => installing from ppa : https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa without success (either 390 or 396 version of drivers) without success Tried also installing lightdm instead of gdm3 which just get me a dark screen. Reverted back to Nouveau drivers doing what Ivan did in #78, I managed to do a startx and get into gnome desktop. Then I rebooted, and gdm3 was just fine and managed to login. But after another reboot I could just access to gdm3 but system seemed hangs after login (fixed cursor in middle of a dark screen). If I play with alt+ctrl+f1 , f2 It turns back to gdm3 login screen. alt+ctrl+f3 gets me to a standard text login. I managed to properly boot again after doing a sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm3 but it worked only once. Finally, out of desperation, I did another sudo apt-get install nvidia- driver-396 and now everything is working :) Go figure... My guess is that removing the old xorg.conf file did the trick for me -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1752053 Title: nvidia-390 fails to boot graphical display Status in mesa package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: I'm using Bionic with the new 4.15 kernel. I've been using the nvidia-384 driver with no problem for a while. Today I issued "sudo apt-get upgrade" and I was prompted to upgrade the nvidia driver to the nvidia-390. After installing the driver and rebooting, I was only able to boot in to the tty terminal. The graphical display failed to boot. I have had similar problems with nvidia driver version 390 with Arch Linux and with Open Suse Tumbleweed.
