Ubuntu disables n-card driver (System card is dead)

Graphics driver

The release is still built into the Nouveau open source drive, which is a direct cause of frequent crashes. The next three things to do are:

• Disabling the Nouveau kernel module
• Installing the Intel HD 530 driver (option two)
• Installing the NVIDIA closed-source drive (option two)

Disabling the Nouveau kernel module

First Add a blacklist:

# vi/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf

Write the following in this file:

12345

blacklist nouveau blacklist lbm-nouveauoptions nouveau modeset=0alias nouveau offalias Lbm-nouveau off

To ensure complete disabling, also disable Nouveau directly in the kernel:

# Echo Options Nouveau modeset=0 | sudo tee-a/etc/modprobe.d/nouveau-kms.conf

After this, the update configuration test takes effect:

# Update-initramfs-u

After restarting the system again, you can avoid the situation of direct card death after login.
