I have been trying to install the default nvidia 375.39 driver that is provided in the latest Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS iso for a few days. The installed Ubuntu 16.04 is EFI booted from a M.2 NVME BPX SSD attached to a ASUS Z170M-Plus mob.
$ uname -r returns 4.8.0-41-generic
$ uname -v returns #44~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 3 17:11:16 UTC 2017
$ [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo "EFI boot on HDD" || echo "Legacy boot on HDD" returns EFI boot on HDD
mob uefi settings: Fast Boot[Disabled], tried CSM [Enabled] and [Disabled],
After many installation attempts over a few days, I always found that the nvidia installation simply cannot complete the installation procedure and run "forever" on a single processor; I have allowed the installation to run through the night and it was still installing the next day.
Is there a bug preventing the installation?
Has anyone successfully installed the 375.39 driver on the 4.8.0-41-generic kernel for EFI booted Ubuntu 16.04? If yes, can you share how you achieve it? |

Is there a bug preventing the installation or is there some settings I need to perform to get it to complete the installation?
