1. Since we are using NVIDIA driver, we need to remove or disable XServer Nouveau Drivers | |
* Disable : | |
** sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf | |
** Add the following two lines : | |
blacklist nouveau | |
options nouveau modeset=0 | |
* Remove : sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau | |
2. Stop the display manager : sudo service lightdm stop | |
3. Install the drivers : | |
sudo apt-get install nvidia-prime | |
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa | |
sudo apt-get update | |
sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 | |
4. Check the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf and make sure the X Config "UseDisplayDevice" is commented | |
4. Reboot : sudo reboot | |
Result : everything should work as expected. |
