[Bug 1765923] Re: Nvidia driver leads to black screen on bionic 18.04 SDDM LightDM bug?

[Thomas Friedrichsmeier]

Same symptoms(*) here after a fresh upgrade to 18.04.

Tried installing gdm, as suggested above, and also adding "xrandr" as
suggested, here: https://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?316354
-SDDM-shows-black-screen-with-Nvidia . Neither made a difference for me.

However, the problem finally went away after switching to the nouveau
driver. (And I have no recollection of ever asking for the proprietary
nvidia driver, specifically, but I may be wrong about that.)

(*) Symptoms: sddm, but also lightdm and gdm3 showing only black. startx
brings up an xfce session without problems.
