Ubuntu 18.10 not booting when Nvidia drivers are installed
Ubuntu works fine with the open source Xorg drivers but when I try to install the Nvidia drivers it freezes at starting GNOME display manager. I can still use Ctrl+Alt+F2 to get into TTY mode. I do not have this problem when I install any Ubuntu-based distro that is not using GNOME. It works fine on openSUSE GNOME as well and Pop!_OS. I still want the Nvidia drivers because I play a lot of games.
