Yes definitely try blacklisting nouveau. The GTX 1050 is relatively new. In my experience the GTX 1060 (slightly older) only started working recently and the GTX 960 still doesn't work with nouveau at last check.
Although when I say "working" I mean the machine boots without hanging and doesn't fall back to the LLVMpipe driver (which my GTX 1060 did for quite a while). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1733136 Title: wayland session in Ubuntu 18.04 chooses LLVMpipe software driver on hybrid graphics system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1733136/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
