I too am affected by this bug The device is a Dell Vostro 5470 with Intel integrated graphic card + Nvidia GT740M using driver version 375.66.
The bug appears when doing a clean install of Ubuntu gnome, changing the nouveau driver to proprietary 375.66 and rebooting. Upon reboot the login screen doesn't show (all black with display on) The same happens with Ubuntu 17.04 and even 16.04 but only with gnome desktop. unity works just fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1705369 Title: Ubuntu 17.10 boots to black screen when using Nvidia drivers (on a desktop with an Intel GPU) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1705369/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
