Bookworm boot stacks with black screen after NVIDIA driver installed.
Hi folks.
Fresh Bookworm install on Dell M4800 Precision with i7-4810MQ CPU @
2.80GHz and NVIDIA Quadro K2100M graphic card. No problems install, the
system works with the default nouveau driver well enough.
My video card is supported according to NVIDIA. Debian nvidia-detect
advised installation of nvidia-tesla-470-driver available in repo. After
installing it the system boot stacks somewhere in the middle with a
weird black screen. No access to TTYs, no cursor, no reaction to
keyboard. I tried to boot with "nomodeset" in GRUB with no result.
When rebooted in restore mode neither journal -b or journal -xe showed
any problems. Nvidia module seems to be inserted and loaded. No other
problems reported. The only way out is to execute 'apt purge "*nvidia*",
and to reboot. The system then reverts to nouveau driver without any
problems.
Anyone, please?
Thanks.
