Hi, all,
I got a HP env 5306tx laptop with dual GPUs, and I faild to install driver for it. I have tried official driver, rpmfusion, bumblebee, all failed. My dist is fc18-i386, with security boot disabled and legacy boot enabled.
What is bothering me is that nvidia driver leave the screen blackout. When I reboot, I can dimly recognize a fedora logo in the center of screen, which is nearly blackout. So I cannot enter the system, and nothing changes after I add 3 at the end of grub command(and remove all these kernel options) or press ctrl-alt-fn.
My questions is: * Why nvidia driver affects run level 3 and TTY? * How to enter system and remove installed drivers?
Another non-related question is TTY is not working properly before I install nvidia driver. If I boot in runlevel3, and I enter TTY2 before login, the screen will flash between tty1 and tty2, or stick in tty2(cannot switch to other TTYs). I don't know it is a hardware problem or software problem.
Any advice will be appreciated.
I usually install Fedora with the standard Nouveau driver and Ubuntu with it's video driver - get the whole system functioning then install nvidia if and when required. That process has never failed me. Roger

Two systems are fine. But my question is how to improve fedora. If patient enough, I can reinstall the whole system.
Do you suggest Ubuntu have a better support for nvidia driver?

Not at all I use both. Both install and just work. Improving Fedora depends on what you want to do, what apps you want to run. Try Fedora with Nouveau and see if it behaves. If not then your video may have issues. Roger
nouveau works, but I need glsl3 support, so I have to install official driver.
