Neither removing it nor changing "off" to "on made any difference that I
saw.
Back in September, 2013, I opened a thread "problem: system freezes" in
this list. What solved the problem was Rick Stevens' suggestion to
replace the "nouveau" graphics card driver for my nVidia graphics card
with the "nVidia binary driver". Using the commands that Rick gave me
back then, I check what's being used now:
bash.2[~]: lsmod | grep -i nouveau
bash.3[~]: lsmod | grep -i nvidia
nvidia_drm 49152 1
nvidia_modeset 790528 4 nvidia_drm
nvidia 12308480 68 nvidia_modeset
drm_kms_helper 151552 1 nvidia_drm
drm 348160 4 nvidia_drm,drm_kms_helper
bash.4[~]:
So yes, I'm using the proprietary nVidia driver.
The blacklisting is not my doing. I don't know why it's there, or if it
should be there. But it does seem consistent with my system using the
nvidia proprietary driver.
Does it matter that
GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=true
GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080,1600x900,1280x720,1024x576,auto
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
come after the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX line in the /etc/default/grub file?
I'm guessing it does not matter, but I'd like that confirmed by someone
a lot more knowledgeable about these things than am I. I'm highly
uncomfortable playing with something as critical as grub.
thanks,
Bill.
