Cinnamon breaks when installing nvidia driver

VaGNaroK commented 4 years ago

Linux mint cinnamon 20 Beta x64

when installing the system and making the updates through the "update manager" where a kernel comes to update I restarted the system to complete everything and start with the new kernel. After that I used the "driver manager" to install my nvidia 9500gt, after installing and restarting the system cinnamon starts broken as in the image below: https://postimg.cc/zVCZ29ZL

I had to remove the driver to get back to normal. *I believe it is because of the kernel used in the ust Ubuntu base, since in mint 19.3 this error does not occur.

I had the issue with Mint 19.3 Cinnamon after some system updates had come in (Dell T20, Nvidia GT630 here) just two or three days ago. I then uninstalled all nvidia* packages, disabled and blacklisted the nouveau driver kernel module, and reinstalled Nvidia drivers with ubuntu-drivers autoinstall. After that, everything was back to normal again.

Can you show a screenshot of the driver manager?

And inxi -Gxx?

Hello ,I experienced the same problem : Mint 20 works fine , really very good job ... but , 1 Don't install nvidia prime , i was surprise as it is 1 of the best feature in mint 20 , and my pc as a intel and nvidia graphic card 2 I install from the control center the nvidia propietary driver ( 340 ) 3 Restart ... after grub , the screen for connect is black , but i try to type my password and it run ... but cinammon work only in recuperation mode

4 I reinstall the 'nouveau' pilote in the center of control , and restart, everything is good ...

( did all that 3 time, always the same issue )

5 install nvidia prime from the soft center ( if i try from add applet in the dock , it says "NvidiaPrime@pdcurtis is not compatible ), it allow me to choose nvidia , intel or on demand ... even if the driver is always 'nouveau'

My PC : asus ux32VD

Add On : same problem with ubuntu 20.04 , 'nouveau driver' was automatically install , then from the center proprietary driver , installing nvidia driver is ok , but no install of prime ... i install it from synaptic i think , but then , choosing the nvidia on demand , black screen after grub and choosing ubuntu ...

Marking as upstream because it's hardware specific. It's hard to say whether this is kernel related or NVIDIA driver related. It doesn't happen here on NVIDIA for us, we get prime and nvidia working correctly. We'll retest both also during QA prior to stable.

Malaingithub commented 4 years ago

Can you tell me thé right way to install NVIDIA driver ... And prime which doesn't install automatically ?

I will try ..
