I am new to Linux. I just got my hands on an old server machine with Internet to set up a media server and installed a fresh version of Ubuntu. Ultimately, I hope to use it as a headless unit but as I am a newbie, I put the GUI version on. I am having an issue getting it to display at all.
On boot, the output just stops. I can fix it by adding nomodeset to the boot script. I updated the Intel graphics driver’s per the instructions on Intel’s site. I am not sure where to go next. Any advice for troubleshooting? The onboard graphics is intel corporation hd graphics 530 rev 06.
Did you try to disable the load legacy rom option from that thread?
No. I didn’t see this. I’ll take a look.
