Ubuntu, Thunderbolt & Graphics Card interoperability issues
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I have the following build:
GPU: MSI Duke 8G NVIDIA 1070 TI
Motherboard: Gigabyte Aorus Pro Z390 (BIOS v9)
CPU: Intel Core i7
Thunderbolt: Gigabyte Titan Ridge
Monitor: LG Ultrafine 5K Display
OS: Ubuntu 18.10
The main issue I am having is being able to install NVIDIA drivers for my GPU while using my LG UltraFine 5K display. The following side affects / relations I have noticed are:
- When connected to an HDMI monitor without the LG display, everything works fine and I can install the drivers.
- When using the LG display, if I try to install any driver through any method, it leads to a purple-then-black screen on boot, and so I then have to disconnect and connect to my HDMI monitor
- To get Ubuntu to work on my LG display, I have to install the OS without the
Install additional 3rd party components
option - The fans do not spin at all when connected to my LG monitor
As a result of not having the drivers, my computer severely lags when dealing with GPU-intensive applications. As well, if I use a GPU benchmarking utility, then the screen crashes and I am forced to reinstall the OS.
I am running the latest version of Ubuntu and the latest BIOS. Secure Boot is disabled. I am using 2 DP to DP cables between my Thunderbolt card and my GPU.
