I tried to reinstall java yesterday and after rebooting my computer freezes on purple screen. What i tried so far:
1/ I did the following changes in /etc/default/grub:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet nosplash nomodeset"
sudo update-grub I also get a purple screen.
2/I set it to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nomodeset" and got to the tty1 console.
---UPDATE---
3/ I read in other forums it might be related to a corrupted driver from my Nvidia graphic card, so I did the following:
sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
I selected the recommended driver from all drivers listed under "ubuntu-drivers devices", and I installed it as follows:
sudo apt-get install nvidia-384
sudo apt-get update
I rebooted my computer but I am still stuck at the same point :roll:
I have a HP envy dv6 and I am on Ubuntu 16.04.3. Any help, suggestions?
