Creating a custom blacklist and updating the initrd solved the problem (I did not yet identify one specific module, so this might be more modules than necessary):
blacklist vga16fb blacklist rivafb blacklist nvidiafb So it seems /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf does not blacklist enough modules. My guess is that the framebuffer blocks the nvidia module from loading properly on the first try. -- nvidia module only working after gdm restart https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592032 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
