The kernel loads the graphics drivers on boot; it is no longer the |
| 12 |
responsibility of X under normal circumstances. Assuming you can get access to |
| 13 |
the kernel command line arguments (with grub, this can be done from the bootup |
| 14 |
menu [1]), passing the `nomodeset` option will prevent the NVIDIA drivers from |
| 15 |
loading until you start the X server. There is no need for SSH here. |

I had a very similar situation with my AMD drivers a while ago, and being able |
| 18 |
to use the local (pseudo-)TTY made debugging an order of magnitude less painful. |
