Lightdm failed at boot after installing nvidia driver. On intel everthing ok. I have thinkpad with optimus.
Driver installed by DoFlicky.
levelast@levelast-thinkpad ~ $ inxi -G Graphics: Card-1: Intel Device 5916 Card-2: NVIDIA GM107M [GeForce GTX 950M] Display Server: X.Org 1.18.4 drivers: modesetting,nouveau (unloaded: fbdev,vesa) Resolution: 1920x1080@60.03hz GLX Renderer: Mesa DRI Intel HD Graphics 620 (Kabylake GT2) GLX Version: 3.0 Mesa 17.0.4
It looks like you might not be booting into the latest kernel (where only the latest kernel will have the nvidia driver module). What's does this show
uname -a; eopkg info linux-lts | head -n 2
If you boot from a non Solus controlled bootloader, it will need to be updated
You are right.
Linux levelast-thinkpad 4.9.18-10.lts #1 SMP Sun Mar 26 15:44:05 UTC 2017 x86_64 GNU/Linux Installed package: Name : linux-lts, version: 4.9.22, release: 17
But how can i update kernel info from a non Solus controlled bootloader? update-grub doesn't work for Solus =(.
OK you're booted in Solus right now under a GRUB system, so:
sudo clr-boot-manager update
You'll retain the new kernel and current kernel, however it'll now build the /vmlinuz and /initrd.img links.
Then you should be able to update-grub from the other distro.
Thanks for fast reply. But...

Yes.
