You have been subscribed to a public bug: Since updated kernel or package updates the 180 nvidia driver stoped working on hdd0, the ubuntu on hdd2 is working without nvidia driver. I updated to nvidia 185.18.31 via f1 desktop(hdd0) so it could be installed with out xserver runing (will not install with xserver loaded). Now I have no desktop at all. I can see grub menu, the ubuntu progress bar, and then nothing. I have tried ctrl + alt +f1 and no joy. I would like to at least use use the x.config desktop, but I have no idea how to get it back. I have tried recovery mode but no joy. I also took the video cars out to run on the motherboard video but the same result.
