I (finally) installed lubuntu on my work laptop. A lenovo thinkpad with dockingstation and multiple screens.



After install I ran "ubuntu-drivers autoinstall", got nvidia drivers and my external screens work as planned.



However, when I started up the laptop at home (no docking) it starts up nicely, but when X get started I only have a black screen.



Any suggestions ho I can get it to work with and without docking station ???



Thnx
Ton
