Installing NVIDIA driver causes black screen (750M)

Solution 1:

Quick googling gave me this 319.17 Certified

Added support for the following GPUs:

• GeForce GTX 650 Ti BOOST

• GeForce GT 720M

• GeForce GT 735M

• GeForce GT 740M

• GeForce GT 745M

• GeForce GT 750M

So you'll probably need 319.17

It's from 2013.05.02 and not yet in any official Ubuntu repository.

To install it, first remove the ones you installed from the repo's sudo apt-get purge nvidia* (or --purge remove) should do that. If you installed one manually, please look up how to remove them.

Then follow: Install New Nvidia Drivers, Nvidia 319.17, on Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail
