Since the Ubuntu 17.10 that I'm running now has Linux 4.12, there should be some support for my card, yet I still experience the same phenomenon. If I DO NOT use `nomodeset`, I see the boot log shooting through and then blank. I can tell that it is not a system halt, because I can ctrl-alt-delete and the OS catches that and safely reboots. It is the official Ubuntu 4.12.0-11-generic, x86_64. 03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP102 [GeForce GTX 1080 Ti] (rev a1) How can I further help you help me, please?

dmesg | grep nouveau . You can do this if you have ssh enabled on your machine. On my 980, There was an issue introduced in 4.12 which gives me similar behavior where I cannot boot up GNOME. Commit that fixes it which is part of 4.13 is called "add support for address-only transactions". Ask your distro to backport.

Hey. Thanks for the tip. I finally got around to capturing these long entries. So, here they are: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25529150/ I hope it helps. What you can see in it, are two consecutive boot-ups. The first is without `nomodeset` and therefore fails (so I don't get any display output) and the second is with `nomodeset` so I do get a usable computer but no GPU acceleration. What do the logs tell us, please? On Sat, Aug 26, 2017 at 3:17 AM <rosenp at gmail.com> wrote:> dmesg | grep nouveau .
