After installing Ubuntu the system would hang after the bios boot logo, which I fixed using the following solution:
Hold shift after bios logo to enter GRUB, go to advanced options, press E on top selection and add:
nomodeset
I made this change permenant by entering the desktop and entering in terminal:
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
Add nomodeset to the linux line and then running the following command:
sudo update-grub
Once that was sorted have tried installing several Nvidia drivers including ver 375 recommended via the additional drivers section, all cause a login loop to occur.
To fix the issue and enter the desktop again I must use the following command to switch to IGP:
sudo prime-select intel
I am guessing this has something to do with the kernel 4.10 which I am using.
When I enter Xsettings with Nvidia drivers installed it shows no GPU.
Here are my specs:
Intel I7 7700HQ
16GB ram
GTX 1050
Intel HD 630 graphics
Does anyone know any solutions?
