2020-05-19 18:34:41 Felippe description I'm running 18.04 on a Intel. My computer came with Ubuntu installed and a Nvidia GeForce MX150 Graphics Card, but I've never been able to use it, as it always freezes my screen. For a year, I've been using the Intel Graphics Card instead. The problem is, I got my python3 installation really messed up and had to do a Factory Reset to be able to boot again (as unfortunately I had no backup). Since I've had this problem in the past, I've been able to more or less reproduce the steps I've made to get my computer working with Intel Graphics. Some of them were: Purge NVIDIA Graphics: sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia* Install lightdm, as the default manager got my login screen freezing too: sudo apt-get install lightdm Edit grub settings so I could boot in nomodeset at least: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="mem_sleep_default=deep nomodeset" (I believe this probably wasn't the right place to write nomodeset, but I'm not the more experienced user and thought I should remove nvidia-drm.modeset=1 from my boot settings as I didn't want anything to do with NVIDIA.) After login with lightdm in nomodeset, I got that the used Graphics Card is llvmpipe (LLVM 9.0, 256 bits), not Intel UHD Graphics, which is the desired one. So I've installed NVIDIA repo again (sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa) and also Nvidia settings for being able to prime-select intel as the Graphics Card. My desire is to be able to boot with Intel UHD Graphics but without nomodeset. How should my grub file look like? It's currently like that: # If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update # /boot/grub/grub.cfg. # For full documentation of the options in this file, see: # info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration' GRUB_DEFAULT=0 GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden GRUB_TIMEOUT=0 GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian` GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="mem_sleep_default=deep nvidia-drm.modeset=1" # Uncomment to enable BadRAM filtering, modify to suit your needs # This works with Linux (no patch required) and with any kernel that obtains # the memory map information from GRUB (GNU Mach, kernel of FreeBSD ...) #GRUB_BADRAM="0x01234567,0xfefefefe,0x89abcdef,0xefefefef" # Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only) #GRUB_TERMINAL=console ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+19ubuntu7.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-1080.90-oem 4.15.18 Uname: Linux 4.15.0-1080-oem x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.14 Architecture: amd64 BootLog: Error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/log/boot.log' CompositorRunning: None CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Tue May 19 15:22:55 2020 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: bionic DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation Device [8086:3ea0] (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:08a6] Subsystem: Dell GP108M [GeForce MX150] [1028:08a6] InstallationDate: Installed on 2020-05-17 (2 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 18.04 "Bionic" - Build amd64 LIVE Binary 20180608-09:38 Lsusb: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0bda:5521 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
