I installed Ubuntu 13.04, but after the reboot theres only a black screen with the blinking bar on the top left. I found, that one possible solution is that the video drivers are not installed, so i tried it (the weird thing is that "try ubuntu without installing" works perfectly fine). So i downloaded the .run file, but it's always saying "seems like you're running a X Server" blahblah. I searched for maybe 2 hours for the solution, but none of the ones i found worked for me. Can anybody please help me? PS: I'm pretty new to Ubuntu...

  • There is a bug with nvidia and the stock 3.8.0-19 kernel in ubuntu 13.04 use the mainline kernel

    • Not doing this can result in not being able to boot


  • Install the driver by running sudo apt-get install -y nvidia-313-updates nvidia-settings-313-updates

    • If you want the beta driver use the xorg edgers ppa, then install nvidia-319 nvidia-settings-319
      sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa -y; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade -y; sudo apt-get install nvidia-319 nvidia-settings-319 -y
