Problem with xorg.conf always regenerate new one

[Valtam]

When you get to the TTY, login. Then do:

Code:

startx

if you don't get into the desktop, make a note of where they say the log file is. Then place the log in this thread.

This command cause login loop for me, took me for a while to fix it LOL

Well, To be honest I am very new to Linux. I am really appreciate your help, Jerry  ;D

I attached the log for you.
And this showed on my monitor before entering TTY.

Make sure you are always plugged into one nvidia card. Try the following from TTY.

Code:

sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
sudo nvidia-settings --uninstall
sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia*

Reboot.

Code:

sudo apt-get install nvidia-common

Reboot. After this reboot you should be at the desktop. From there, you can install the nvidia driver from Install Drivers.

It said there is no this command

Code:

nvidia-settings --uninstall

neither

Code:

nvidia-xconfig --uninstall

so I skip it.

Well, all the process I have only one monitor plug into GTX970 and operate directly to the system (not through Teamviewer)
1. Login TTY(from where I can't get to Linux Lite GUI)
2. apply these commands

Code:

sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia*

3. reboot
4. apply this

Code:

sudo apt-get install nvidia-common

5. reboot and install Nvidia driver from Install Drivers.
6. reboot
7. Apply these command

Code:

sudo update-grub
sudo nvidia-xconfig -a --cool-bits=28 --allow-empty-initial-configuration

8. reboot

It's work!!! Thanks Jerry.
So from my understanding, The location of my HDMI turn out to be the significant factor of the problem.
One last question Can I apply a dummy plug after this to fix the resolution when in headless mode?

I've no experience with headless servers. You will need to start a new thread for that query. In the meantime, please mark this one as Solved as per your welcome email instructions. Thank you.
