Hi, |

I'm getting a black screen during booting, with the last message I can |
| 4 |
see being that udevevents are being processed. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
This happens with an NVIDIA GTX770 connected to a 4k display via a |
| 7 |
display port cable, and only when the monitor is configured to use |
| 8 |
display port 1.2 rather than 1.1. With 1.1, I can get only 30Hz refresh |
| 9 |
rate, so I want to use 1.2, which should allow 60. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Installed are nvidia-drivers 343.36. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Do I need a very special display port cable for this, or what might the |
| 14 |
issue? Both the graphics card and the monitor should be able to do the |
| 15 |
full resolution at 60Hz just fine. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Is the nvidia module loaded just at the point when the message about |
| 18 |
processing udevevents is shown? I suspect that the display goes black |
| 19 |
when the module is loaded. |

|
| 21 |
When the screen goes black, I can still log in, blindly, after booting |
| 22 |
and do a shutdown or reboot, so apparently everything is working except |
| 23 |
only having a black screen. |

Again we must be afraid of speaking of daemons for fear that daemons |
| 28 |
might swallow us. Finally, this fear has become reasonable. |
