I'm trying to install Ubuntu 16.04 on my Lenovo Yoga 710 with a Nvidia Geforce 940M graphics card. I've looked at all the instructions online including adding nomodeset
or nouveau.modeset=0
to the linux line after hitting e
on the grub menu during boot. I've also tried disabling secure boot.
None of these seem to work, as I'm able to get into the login after doing nouveau.modeset=0
after purging all nvidia drivers from the recovery boot shell. But whenever I install the nvidia drivers and try to reboot, it always freezes, and then I'm back to square one. Can somebody please help?
