NVidia GTX 770M boots to blank terminal window

Apologies if this ends up being a trivial question but I've been Googling for a while and nothing has worked so far.
I have a laptop with an NVidia GTX 770M Optimus card and I'm struggling with display issues with the NVidia drivers. Before installing the drivers the machine booted to the DM fine, but after installing them and generating an xorg.conf with the NVidia tool it will only boot to a (virtually) blank terminal window. The only message that appears is:
/dev/sda4: clean, 242320/15179776 files, 2408585/60689590 blocks
Occasionally this is accompanied by some text about starting services, but the cursor always remains blinking at the end of the process and the login window does not appear. The window is not technically black like if there were no display being rendered at all. Ctrl-F2 etc. to get into terminal modes works fine.
Strangely enough, if I remove xorg.conf then I can reach the login screen fine, so I'm assuming this is a problem with X. There appears to be no xorg log no matter where I look. I've also tried installing the linux-mainline kernel under advice from other posts but with no success. Bumblebee is installed and set up to start on boot.
My xorg.conf
lspci | grep VGA
Let me know if there's any more information I need to provide.

I'm definitely no expert here at all, so none of this may be helpful. I have an Optimus setup myself, and I used it with Bumblebee (the Wiki has instructions). I had no problems booting and I never used an xorg.conf. This seems to echo what you are saying.
Your posted xorg.conf seems to be faulty though -- at least for using the "Optimus" setup whereby BOTH cards are used. If you only want to run on your nVidia card and bascially cut out the Intel one, the xorg.conf needs some tweaking (again, see the Wiki). But you will also have to REMOVE the Intel drivers from your machine -- at least I did.
I am not at home right now, so I can;t post my xorg.conf for you. (The Wiki has a copy, though.)
Note: My card is a GTX730M, not a 770. This may also make a difference.

  • Blank terminal window

    I am looking at a blank Terminal window with only a prompt in it.
    I can type at the prompt but cannot execute any commands.
    I tried re-choosing some settings in preferences and also
    deleting com.apple.Terminal.plist but it remained unchanged...
    How can I get back to a normal Terminal window?

    Thanks for replying...
    I'm embarrassed to admit that a restart seemed to solve it :-/
    I went to another disk to do something and when I booted back,
    my Terminal window was back to normal.
    It reported nothing, as I said. The only thing written to my Console.log is a mail message.
    Yes, I did try to modify some preferences to get bash to be my profile again but that had no effect on the Terminal window.

  • Firefox opens as a blank white window when NVidia Stereoscopic 3D is enabled.

    I just recently got a 3D HD Monitor for my desktop and I noticed that if nvidia's steroscopic 3D is enabled, firefox (and thunderbird) open as a completely blank white window. If you right click anywhere in the window it shows up as a blacked out rectangle. The minimize, maximize and close buttons do work if you know where to click.

    I had the same problem as I reported in Bug 643316 in March. I uninstalled the 3D Vision drivers at the time and the problem went away. Today when I installed the NVIDIA 285.27 beta, I installed 3D Vision again, and I can no longer reproduce the problem. It did NOT require a clean install for me.

  • Using Boot Camp to install Windows XP: problems with display going blank

    I have a new Mac mini (early 2009) connected to an older NEC MultiSync LCD (VGA only) display through a KVM.
    I initially used the Apple Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter to make the display connection.
    All worked fine with Mac OS X, but when I attempted to use Boot Camp to install Windows XP (Home), the display would go blank with the display saying "no signal" at some point during the install and I couldn't get the mini's display back without power cycling the mini. Numerous attempts at removing the Boot Camp partition, re-partitioning, and retrying resulted in nothing but frustration. I typically had to force the mini to boot from the OS X install DVD or Mac partition to make the mini usable again.
    I have used my LCD display and KVM combination with a variety of computers running a variety of operating systems, including older Mac minis running both Mac OS X and XP, with no problems. And I intend to keep using it, so I wasn't going to assume the problem was there!
    After noting that Apple had already released a [firmware update|http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mini_DisplayPort_to_VGA_FirmwareUpdate] for this adapter to address "[possible intermittent flickering and compatibility issues|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3492]", I double checked that it was up to date--and it was. But, it made me suspicious that this adapter might have some more problems and be the source of the troubles I was experiencing.
    So, I got an Apple Mini-DVI to VGA adapter and tried that.
    No more display problems! Everything works fine with Mac OS X. Windows XP installed without so much as a flicker, and it works smoothly with my setup.
    I'm curious if I'm the only one who was affected by this problem?

    Restart your Mac while holding down the Alt/Option-key until you get to the Boot Selection Screen.
    Choose to boot OSX.
    Use the BootCamp Assistant to remove the Windows partition.
    Go to System Preferences then Startup Volume and rest the default to be your OSX volume.
    Reboot your Mac again.
    Follow the instructions from here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3173 and use the BootCamp Assistant again to install Windows 7

  • MSI GT70-2OC with NVIDIA Geforce GTX 770m: performance issues

    I've setup some games on my gaming laptop and I'm seeing lower frame rates with various games (30-50), and there is a "line" in the 3D graphics (I'm assuming that has something to do with the refresh rate). Any idea as to what might be causing this issue? Any ideas on how I can boost the performance of my GTX 770m?
    thanks,

    It was suggested to me by a family member that it may be a hardware issue, hence the consideration for sending it in.
    Quote
    To me it sounds like a hardware issue (especially if you have rolled back to factory default and reinstalled from scratch)
    It wouldn't be a hardware issue since you can play other games without problem.
    Easiest way to tell if it's a hardware issue or not is to run the benchmark tool for example 3DMark 11 and see if the problem also happens during the benchmark.
    For the rendering problem you were talking, please provide not only the problem picture but also the picture without problem to let us make the comparison.
    I'm sorry to say, but some of the picture I'm not really getting what the problem you're talking about.

  • Screen goes blank after windows boots up.

    i just updated my graphics driver through HP SUPPORT ASSISTANT when suddenly my laptop went blank and restarted on its own and after the windows logo i got a blank screen but the process is running in the background,just the display is gone.i rebooted in safe mode and disabled my graphics driver Radeon HD 6490M and it booted normally but with a lower resolution.i am not sure what the problem is.
    my laptop model is HP PAVILION dv6-6119tx
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    yes the issue is solved.just boot into safe mode and disable the ATI graphics driver.then boot the into normal WINDOWS.the screen resolution will be low and now UNINSTALL INTEL graphics driver.then restart your system.now when you boot into WINDOWS,the INTEL driver will get installed automatically.if you are connected to the internet,the driver will be downloaded from WINDOWS UPDATE.so you need to skip that step.and the driver will get installed from existing folders.after it gets installed reboot your system.and it should work fine

  • MSI Nvidia GTX 760 OC Edition broken

    Hi guys, back in December I bought an MSI Nvidia GTX 760 OC Edition and it has worked flawlessly until a few days ago. The first sign of trouble (a few days ago) was that the computer was restarting and when it returned to desktop there was a messaged that read "nVidia display drivers have stopped working and have been recovered". Sometimes it would happen without restarting the computer which would result in the screen going blank for a second and then coming back on with the aforementioned message.
    To resolve this I used the "Driver Sweeper" program to completely remove the drivers for the card and reinstall them, but the problem persisted. I did this several times with the latest driver and the older driver and the last time I did it when I was booting into windows the screen got covered with graphical artifacts in pink and yellow colours and would not even display the mouse cursor. So I switched to the integrated graphics (thank goodness my motherboard has onboard graphics or I would be screwed) and since then the system would not recognise the graphics card, even in the BIOS. This means that I cannot install drivers for the card because the Nvidia installer will not install drivers if it does not detect a graphics card present.
    Now when I put the graphics card in the fan runs at max even if I unplug the PCI-e power connectors from it, yet the system refuses to recognise the card at all.
    So here's a summary of what I have done:
    cleaned drivers out completely
    Reinstalled latest and older version of driver
    Checked Bios
    Reseated GPU
    Tried the card in another PCI-e slot
    Started the computer with the HDMI cable plugged into the graphics card, resulting in no monitor output
    Attempted to install drivers from the DVD, same problem as with the drivers downloaded from the Nvidia website
    Here are my system specs, everything is under a year old:
    MSi Z87-G55 mobo
    intel Core i5 4670k
    Corsair Vengeance 8GB Ram (2x4)
    XFX 650 watt core pro Bronze edition PSU
    So yeah, pretty high spec and all new. I don't have another computer to try the GPU in, but with the driver related shenanigans it is fair to suspect that the GPU is at fault. I have removed the card and everything is running fine without it.
    MSi don't offer any helpful information about their RMA procedure so it would appear my only hope is the person I bought it from. Although I will try to harass MSi about it to see if I can get it RMA'ed via them.

    Right, as an update I was issued a replacement by MSI and it arrived today The broken card arrived to them on Wednesday and they dispatched a replacement that same day and it arrived today (Monday). So that is less than five days from the broken card arriving to them to the replacement arriving at my door, very impressed. So if anyone in the UK has a faulty MSi product that needs replacing I can vouch for their RMA service, it is first class In my experience at least, I can say that MSi are one of the good guys and will definitely be a manufacturer to consider when shopping for new hardware.

  • Problem/issue of nVidia GTX660M on GE60 0ND-298 with Windows 8.1

    Hi folks,
    I am newbie here, so please forgive me,
    if my post is too long and ugly.
    I have "almost" the same problem as the user called "Ghost", but in my case there
    are few differences. I am too user of MSI GE60-0ND notebook, but the version is 298CZ (MSI GE60 0ND-298CZ).
    some short info about me:
    I am sort of experienced in PC maintenance, driver repairs, and software installing and setting up.
    I had successfully and correctly helped at least  ca. 35+ people (including few relatives and friends)
    with some problems regarding their desktop PCs or notebooks,
    mainly they needed from me to solve some specific problem - some reinstall or
    correct install/set up of the OS and drivers and etc. or other software programs they need to use in everyday life.
    I had correctly updated/reflashed BIOS or firmware on more than 25 PCs (on ca. 4-5 PCs in last 4 months).
    but I am not very skilled in PC HW reparation and assembly.
    The problem I had is possibly simple (or not), but until now I couldn't find the working solution written
    on the MSi Forum/thread or anywhere on the internet.
    I have everything up to date, including Windows OS (8.1), drivers, BIOS and EC/FW from MSI
    (as you can see from specs taken from Speccy 1.25, DxDiag, nVidia control panel and other software).
    Well (or not?), the problem is that high demanding apps, like modern games or some CAD software/benchmarks i had recently
    tested shown that my notebook is only using
    the Intel HD4000 Graphics (in all situations even when it shouldn't) and not the dedicated high-performance
    nVidia GTX660M graphic.
    I even used the nVidia Inspector 1.7.2 from the thread of Ghost's problem with the same nb/graphic card.
    I played HL2 Ep Two and One, Garrys Mod 14.022 (latest), IL-2 Sturmovik: 1946 with Ultrapack 2.1 + SAS1946 updates
    (with tweaked settings to use high-quality perfection/perfect settings)
    to test and look if the dedicated graphics card is working or not. In all cases it shown that the nVidia GTX 660M
    didn't even heat up some grade or load up the textures, and it appeared as non active against the HD4000 that run like wild.
    In some of the above mentioned games it wasn't sufficient and the games crashed and/or closed suddenly-
    that happened in Garrys Mod 14,
    something same happened in that modded IL-2 Sturmovik: 1946 - but with it it crashed by saying that
    "il2fb.exe has stopped working".
    To tell you more, before when i had plain windows 8, it didn't happened even once
    (for the IL-2 Sturmovik was and is still set in the compatibility mode for Win XP SP3 - so everything should work),
    in the case of HL2 Ep. Two it happened almost same as in Garrys mod 14.x . The game simply shut down and quit,
    and closed without saying anything.
    By playing those games, i saw in the taskbar only the icon of Intel HD graphics 4000 looking as active. 
    The icon of nVidia in the taskbar panel stayed there or sometimes it completely disappeared,
    and that indicates that pc was using only the Intel HD4000.
    I tried to check for all updates, uninstall and reinstall Intel VGA HD4000 driver with latest official from Intel support,
    and also after it by uninstall and reinstall of nVidia GTX660M driver with latest stable driver from nVidia page
    with hope that the new drivers would do the thing and repair the errors/issues.
    Until now I tried to solve my problem by myself,
    but as nothing helped to solve the issue with dedicated nVidia card i had to visit this forum.
    The current state of my pc to sum the facts together - to see what could be wrong there:
    PC/Name-type: MSI GE60 0ND-298CZ (late summer 2013)
    OS: Windows 8.1 (64-bit)
    Tech specs: CPU - Intel Quad Core i7-3630QM Ivy Bridge 22nm,
    RAM- 8GB DDR3/1600 MHz, HDD- 750GB (7200 rpm),

    nVidia VGA BIOS Version:   80.07.27.00.05
    Other drivers version
    (which may cause the in-activity/problems of GTX 660M card)
    - Intel Control Center v1.2.1.1008 **

    - Intel Management Engine Interface (MEI) v9.0.0.1287 **
    - Intel SDK for OpenCL-CPU Only Runtime Package v2.0.0.37149
    - NVIDIA PhysX System Software v9.13.1220
    (** I have found some info that outdated (buggy) Intel ME and MEI drivers, could be the cause why the PC
    uses only on board HD Graphics 4000 and can't switch to dedicated GTX 660 M when some app needs it,
    could this be the thing or not?
    I am really not sure, if it is cause why my PC is sticking on use of only HD4000 VGA.
    Should i update the ME or MEI driver to latest stable as mentioned*** or not?
    (*** on win-raid com in thread about latest Intel Management Engine Drivers-Firmware and Tools)
    I am aware that a careless update of Intel ME or MEI can brick your PC or installed OS and make it unstable,
    that is why i don't want to do that thing,
    i want do some other way how to solve the correct vga switching issue.
    Could you please help me, to detect where is the cause of the problem
    and then to help me to solve it somehow ??
    Please tell me also, if you need some other info
    (i can send the DxDiag report if needed or something similar).
    I know that my problem looks same way as had the user called "Ghost",
    but in my case the details are a bit different and specific.
    I will wait patiently for your advices.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you, for that little advice.
    Sorry i didnt answered sooner, was kinda busy last weeks.
    I will specify the problem more - explain my investigation about the issue.
    But I have GE60 0ND, and i somewhere read (on this forum but in other thread/topic)
    that on GE 60 0ND the power button doesnt change its color from blue, either it actually uses Intel HD4000 or nVidia GPU GTX660 M.
    If i am not wrong in that, i hope so / i can say that on my lap the power button never changed its color to some other.
    It was and still is blue.
    What i found from Speccy or from Nvidiainspector soft v1.9.7.2 was that my nVidia is generally
    never used - even in games which were more demanding and were set in nVidia control panel to use nVidia GPU only
    and NOT the HD4000.
    But i think there is also there some other, far deeper and worser problem.
    In last few days I was checking the possible issues with current Intel chipset driver (Intel INF driver - currently v9.3.1025) and also with Intel Mangement Engine drivers (currently ME Components driver 8.1.1281 and ME Interface driver 9.0.1287).
    To tell you more, the problem with GPU drivers started shortly after i updated the Win8 to 8.1, but other confusing symptom is that shortly after the pc boots up in to OS environment,
    the screen flicker one time and then the nVidia's control panel icon in taskbar will dissapear.
    That happens around one to five times in halfhour or hour, after the laptop was turned on. I am very confused, from it, because it looks like the pc is unstable or the Windows Explorer is crashing. After the holfhour it stops doing it, but some time ago i tried to fix it by comletely uninstalling and then reinstalling both of VGAs (HD4000 and nVidia GTX660M) with latest stable and official drivers - but it didnt solved the issue.
    Also the icons on the desktop and in taskbar dissapear for a second and then reappear.
    I tried to figure it out many times, but found that it wasnt Windows Explorer error. What is this problem?
    Is it in INF chispet driver and ME/MEI driver or it is caused by some other corrupted driver?
    I even wrote some notes about what I found out.
    So there are my findings. The ME and MEI driver are responsible
    for deciding the use of and handling interaction between the system's low- and high- performance/importance and on motherboard installed components.
    If they are wrong or incompatible it causes some errors or that some of the used component will be not used because of the error.
    Also same role, but sorta a bit different has the INF chipset driver, which is sorta above the ME and MEI driver and governs over them and over use of the other
    CPU and MB components and periipheral devices, like USB2-3 controllers, Cardreader, charging function etc.
    So my question is, i have found on  Intel support Chipset INF driver for 7 series - the v9.4.1027 (November 2013), about which i read
    that is also suitable for 7 series express chipsets like HM76/77 (my is 76)- should i try to install these drivers ?
    Same, i had a hard work to find more current ME and MEI driver for notebook with Intel's 7 series express chipset
    which should solve my problem. I found on Lenovo support webpage ME driver v9.0.1310 (components driver) and MEI driver v9.0.1287(interface),
    they are both in one installer.
    I read about that installer in description and found out that,
    that drivers are useful on any lap with the 7 series chipset.
    Just the Lenovo added note that those drivers and higher are usable on some other newly adde types of notebooks.
    The provider of the driver was Intel.
    I carefully read also some other info, and just few days ago i read also
    if someone want/really neeeds to update
    Intel INF chipset driver and after it the ME/MEI driver - one should unistall all drivers that are managed by that INF and ME/MEI drivers.
    That means both VGA drivers (CPU GPU and dedicated GPU), Cardreader driver, LAN and WLAN drivers,
    audio driver, all intel drivers - like Rapid storage, SCM driver and so, and manually uninstall the ME Interface driver through Device Manager too.
    My other question is, could someone of you help with this by telling me some other information/advice i possibly completely overlooked.
    Currently, my PC is working poorly - not slow, but the blicking of the icons on desktop and taskbar shortly after the system's start up
    is totally horrible and the nVidia GPU GTX660M is unable to work (by crashing the Nvidia control panel).
    I feel now really lost on this GE60 laptop altough i have good experience how to set PC or notebook.
    I never faced this kind of problem - i would be happy if i knew the way how to fix it for once/definitely and use the fullpotential of that notebook.
    Every advice or your experience will be very welcomed.
    Thanks

    Just put this computer together and having issues with the MB.... MSI 760GM-p23, AMD FX 6100, 4G memory, 128G SSD.  It takes an extemety long time from the time it posts to the time it loads 2.2TB infinity.  Once it gets past the 2.2TB Infinity, it boots up windows like a champ.  I'm at a loss as to what is taking so long... anyone else having similar issue?  Is it just a matter of correct Bios settings?.  If I disable the 2.2TB infinity, the pc will not find a bootable drive.
    Board: MSI 760GM-p23
    Bios: HF (newest)
    VGA:   NVIDIA GTX 560
    PSU:   cheap
    CPU:  AMD FX 6100
    MEM: OCZ 4G
    HDD: Kingston HyperX 128g SSD
    OS: Windows 7 64bit Home

    Solved:  Basically I installed the SSD wrong.  Correct process is go into Bios, disable 2.2TB Infinity, set SSD to ACHI, then install windows.  System boots up within seconds now

    I made a thread, but it has not been approved by a moderator yet, so I will ask the question in here since the topic is relevant.
    The GS Stealth in this topic is the same as the one MSI revealed at CES 2014.
    But what is GS 70 Stealth and GS 70 Stealth Pro on the website?
    And which one is the GS 70 Stealth that was released just a few days ago?
    I am just confused as to the naming of this particular series.
    I am looking for the GS Stealth that is the one in this topic above, but there seems to be so many versions of it and some are called 70.
    Can someone explain what is what?
    EDIT:
    nevermind, I figured it out through extensive searching on various forums.
    The new Stealth is called GS70 StealthPro-024 or GS70 StealthPro-001 in case anyone wonders.
