Re: I have issues with NVIDIA optimus

[Cesar Tapia <atipaq@yahoo.com>]

I put nouveau driver on blacklist

then i installed  nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver from the sources (main contrib non-free) and nvidia-settings return that i am not using the driver, iand run nvdia-xconfig and crash (blank screen).

i restarted the system, then i download the official driver from nvidia ( nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver ... run extension), i stoped Xserver on tty1 and started to install, it finishes and blank screen again.

Cesar,

Can we see the output logs of the failed installation? Are you installing the nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver package? We need some more information in order to be able to help.

Thank you,

Kevin Thomas
