18.04 Boot to black unless I delete $vt_handoff grub parameter, related to Nvidia drivers?
System not booting with nVidia graphics card and NOMODESET in grubBlack screen on boot when any NVIDIA drivers installedSelect at boot time, from Grub, Nouveau or Nvidia driverBlack screen at boot with nvidia / Kubuntu 16.10NVIDIA driver issuesUnable to switch to NVidia-375 on Ubuntu 16.04Boot Screen w/ GNU GRUB Purple and Black Overlay After Installing Nvidia DriversProblems booting from boot cd or HD with Ubuntu Mate 18.04 LTS 64 bit & Nvidia Geforce GTX 260Ubuntu won't boot after switch to nvidia graphicsAwake from sleep issues; garbled blocks screen; dual boot laptop
I started having problems booting after I tried to use prime-select for the first time to switch between my laptop's Nvidia GTX 960M and Intel graphics, using the same nvidia-390 driver that had worked fine for months.
The computer would boot to black, then to tty if I put nomodeset in grub, then after reading a zillion Ask Ubuntu pages and reinstalling a lot of packages, I did sudo apt purge *nvidia* and switched to the new nvidia-driver-415. I also added nouveau.modeset=0 to /etc/default/grub.
Now it boots and runs fine, but only if I manually edit grub every time I boot and remove the $vt_handoff parameter that shows up after nouveau.modeset=0. If I don't, it boots to black, and I can't even get a tty. What gives?
Doing some digging, I found an old bug report that suggests that a missing /boot/grub/gfxblacklist.txt file could disable a graphical boot. I don't have that file. I considered installing grub-gfxpayload-lists as suggested by that post, but it looks like it might conflict with more recent grub-related packages and wreck shop. I'm relatively new to linux and hesitant to mess around with the guts of the OS in case I break something I don't understand.
Any ideas? I would greatly appreciate any help.
More details, let me know if I can include anything else:
Dell Inspiron 7559, dual boot with Windows 10 (Secure Boot off);
Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS;
kernel 4.15.0-39-generic;
graphics Nvidia GeForce GTX 960M/PCIe/SSE2;
