Installing Nvidia drivers and rebooting gets me stuck on Ubuntu loading up. I suspect GDM(Gnome Display Manager) might not be launching properly. One time I was stuck in this screen:
From this screen I can get to tty and purge all Nvidia drivers and reboot back in with nouveau.modeset=0
And, sometimes it gets me stuck on fsck and again I have to repeat the same process and purge all Nvidia drivers before I could get Ubuntu to boot up again.
I followed the instructions on this site to install the Nvidia drivers (nvidia-340 for me) and its just not working out, I've scoured the internet and surfed the deepest webpages on this issue.
I'm running an i7 with Nvidia GTX 950M, Ubuntu 18.04.1
Please send help.
You could try installing the nvidia-driver-396 in 18.04.1
The following answer in the second half of it covers the installation of the driver:

Or
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-396
