![]() In some cases, not using the graphics driver at all or switching to the open source driver may result in poor-looking resolution. If you are using Nvidia's open source Nouveau driver, you may try disabling it by adding this in the Grub: modprobe.blacklist=nouveau Step 3: Make permanent changes in Grub (if you can boot and there is no issue with graphics) If even that doesn’t work, try adding noapic noacpi nosplash irqpoll instead of quiet splash in the grub. Save and exit grub and see if you can boot now. While editing grub, add nouveau.noaccel=1 in place of nomodeset. If using nomodeset in the grub didn’t work and you can still not boot, try some other parameters instead of nomodeset.įollow the same steps as mentioned above. Troubleshoot: Cannot boot even after using nomodeset? After you login to the system and see everything because the graphics card is loaded again. In other words, you disabled loading the graphics driver at this time and the conflict it was causing goes away. If you add the nomodeset parameter to the kernel, it instructs the kernel to load the video/graphics drivers after the display server is started. Among other benefits, it enables you to have beautiful, high-resolution boot splash screens. In other words, when you log in to your system and see a graphical user interface.īut lately, the video mode settings were moved to the kernel. Normally, the video/graphics cards were used after the X or any other display server was started. So, what did I just do here? What’s that nomodeset thing? Let me explain it to you briefly. Now you’ll boot with the newly modified kernel parameters here. Now your screen should look like this: Disable graphics drivers by adding nomodeset to the kernel Just make sure that you are adding it at the end of the line. Just add the following text at the end of the line starting with Linux. My favorite way is to disable all video/graphics card using nomodeset. ![]() Now, there are several ways you can try to disable these drivers. This incompatibility with open source version of NVIDIA drivers caused the issue so what we can do here is to disable these drivers. Remember, our problem is with the NVIDIA Graphics drivers. Go to line starting with Linux Step 2: Temporarily Modifying Linux kernel parameters in Grub You should focus on the line that starts with Linux. You should see some sort of code like the one below. If you don’t see this screen, keep holding Shift key at the boot time.Īt this screen, press ‘E’ key to go into the editing mode. When you boot your system, just stop at the Grub screen like the one below. Without further delay, let’s see how to fix this problem. Please check which graphics card do you have on your Linux system. I have updated this tutorial with two solutions: one works for both Intel and NVIDIA/AMD and the other is exclusively for systems with AMD/NVIDIA graphics card. Sounds familiar? Let me show you how you can fix this problem of Ubuntu freezing at login. ![]() ![]() Ubuntu gets stuck at the purple screen even before reaching the login screen. The mouse won’t move, I couldn’t type anything and nothing else could be done except turning off the device by holding the power button.Īnd it was the same story at the next login try. It was showing the familiar purple screen and then I noticed that it froze there. The installation was quick, easy and painless. I dual booted Windows 10 with Ubuntu 18.04. This laptop has Windows 10 installed on the 120 GB SSD and 1 TB HDD for storing data. It would allow me to cover NVIDIA Graphics related tutorials. Acer Predator Helios 300 comes with NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1050Ti. The reason why I opted for this gaming laptop even though I don’t game on PC is NVIDIA Graphics. It’s a bulky, heavy-built laptop which is in contrast to my liking of smaller, lightweight laptops like the awesome Dell XPS. The other day I bought an Acer Predator laptop ( affiliate link) to test various Linux distributions.
