I'm new to Linux. I've installed Ubuntu 19.04. Everything went perfectly, except for display driver.

If I install my display driver ( Nvidia 340 legacy )

And reboot, I can't boot my OS anymore. I can't even get to login screen. It will just stuck when it says

( [ OK ] Started gnome display manager )

I thought first it's because of the [ Gnome display manager ]

But I don't think that's the case. As I've installed antergos with latest gnome stack 3.32. Everything was perfect. But I love Ubuntu. And now after this new release I love it more..

Sorry for my bad English. Any help is appreciated

EDIT: After digging around. I found that this issue is actually not related to Nvidia. In fact this happen if I disable nouveau driver... Any suggestions?

    I never had much luck with 340 driver with my old GTX 630M. Now with the GTX 970M I find the 384 driver so stable and fast I don't feel any need to upgrade whatsoever. What nvidia card do you have? Apr 26, 2019 at 0:46
  • I have nvidia geforce 315M

Well. Found a temporary fix. I turn on my laptop and after the bios screen and before Ubuntu logo. I kept pressing [ ESC ] multiple times until it shows me Ubuntu logo and splash screen. Then quickly press [ ALT + F2 and then F1 quickly ] it will work
