Pay your attention to ubuntu-drivers devices command output - there are following lines: driver : nvidia-340 - third-party freeĭriver : nvidia-driver-390 - third-party freeĭriver : nvidia-driver-396 - third-party free recommendedĭriver : xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - distro free builtin In summary sudo apt-get remove -purge '^nvidia-.*'Įcho 'nouveau' | sudo tee -a /etc/modulesĪlthough all above commands not needed, this is my way to completely purge the nvidia driver and use the open source nounveau. Last, search for the nf file and remove it as well sudo rm /etc/X11/nf If you want to be sure that nouveau will be load in boot, you can force-load it by add it to /etc/modules echo 'nouveau' | sudo tee -a /etc/modules With purge command it should UN-blacklisted. So after above command you should also give the installation command for ubuntu-desktop package sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktopĪlso sometimes the nouveau driver get blacklisted from nvidia driver. * in the end means (Purge everything that begins ( ^) with the name nvidia-)Ībove command will also remove the nvidia-common package and the nvidia-common package has as a dependency the ubuntu-desktop package.
If you want to be sure that you will purge everything related to nvidia you can give this command sudo apt-get remove -purge '^nvidia-.*' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidiaĮxcept the package nvidia-common all other packages should be purged. Search what packages from nvidia you have installed.
No need to blacklist something, but sometimes maybe a force-load of the nouveau module needed. If you remove -purge the nvidia driver you will be OK. You can open a terminal with Ctrl + Alt+ T keys combo.
