Matebook X PRO and Nvidia drivers with Mint 19
Once installing nvidia-390 drivers (or other versions) in my MBXP, I experienced a black screen after the boot.
I managed to resolve the problem going in tty and purging all the Nvidia drivers and removing the xorg file.
The fact is that now, using inxi -G I got this:
Graphics:
Card-1: Intel UHD Graphics 620
Card-2: NVIDIA Device 1d12
Display Server: x11 ([X.Org](https://X.Org) 1.19.6 )
drivers: (unloaded: fbdev,vesa) FAILED: modesetting
Resolution: [3000x2000@60.00hz](mailto:3000x2000@60.00hz)
OpenGL: renderer: Mesa DRI Intel UHD Graphics 620 (Kabylake GT2)
version: 4.5 Mesa 18.0.5
So I'm not using any type of driver!
What's better to do?
Trying to reinstall Nvidia (I don't know how to make I working) or repairing modesetting?
What's the best for the battery?
Edit: part 2
Even if I set the driver with the driver manager I have no real changes and nvidia-setting doesn't work.
I'm on a fresh Mint 19 installation.
