Quote from: m654321 on September 21, 2018, 12:43:06 AM@Jerry Thanks Jerry.I've solved the issue here by one of avoidance! I've abandoned LL4 (for now), and the problem posed by being unable to switch back & forth between the graphics drivers (with nVidia 396), and the bricking up problem (with nVidia 390) and returned to using LL3.8, as noone's come up with a fix (me neither).It's actually a pleasure being back with LL3.8 again - I'd forgotten just how smooth and trouble-free it is, and I have another 3 years. I also love it's default icon set. Hopefully by LL5, Ubuntu will have worked out how to get the graphics card switcher to work again.Mike@Jerry ,See, I don't give bad advice

Please don't be preachy in this regard. And yes, his post is useful. Some of you posts lately have been rather aggressive. May I suggest you revisit our Forum Rules. These are not the tones on which our Forum runs. Cheers.
