OK, so I know that other people asked exactly the same... but I just moved from Nouveau to Nvidia using this tutorial, and the new drivers are really, really, really slow. How can I remove Nvidia drivers and recover the open ones?
- If you added things to the blacklist, remove them now from the list with
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf - Now close your session and press Ctrl + Alt + F1 in the login menu.
- Login with your username and password.
- Run
sudo stop lightdm, which will stop X11 (including the standard login menu!) - Now exec
sudo nvidia-uninstall - Press Yes to restore from a backup.
- You may find errors related with non-empty folders. Ignore them.
- If you removed Nouveau, run
sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - Now you can finish with
sudo reboot
