Public bug reported:
Ubuntu installed in legacy mode (efi not supported)
graphic card: Nvidia GF108 [GeForce GT 520]
Kernel: linux-image-4.15.0-30-generic
With default driver active [xserver-xorg-video-nouveau] the performance
is reduced (compared to active nvidia driver in previous 16.04
installation). Running games often leads to screen freeze (hard reboot
necessary).
On the other hand proprietary drivers do not work properly:
1) with nvidia-driver-390 the system locks before showing gdm login (bad chars
shown) with last kernel;
2) with nvidia-driver-390 the screen is forced to 680x480 res using kernel
linux-image-4.15.0-23-generic; also LAN/internet does not work;
3) with nvidia-340 the monitor switches off during boot and the boot does not
continue;
Also tried to activate the nvidia ppa (ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa) to try
the legacy driver (304), but I can't since it breaks several other
packages.
Googling around my guess either is for bugs in kernels from 4.15.0-23 or
for signed modules not working without efi.
Thanks for your support!
