I used a blank drive and installed 17.10 I then did all updates with no other PPAs enabled besides the default Kubuntu ones. The driver manager did ask if I wanted to use a propitiatory Nvidia driver and I said yes and let it install the default Nvidia driver. I installed nothing else. I then did the upgrade.
Here is the contents of /var/log/dist-upgrade
xorg_fixup.log
main.log
history.log
apt-term.log
eipp.log.xz
apt.log
lspci.txt
apt-clone_system_state.tar.gz
