I am trying to switch my desktop to a stable Linux distro, so I tried all flavors of Ubuntu(Debian), CentOS and Opensuse. However, despite the differences between distros the same freeze after login bug still exists. (Shell works perfectly)
The desktop environment that I used were Gnome, KDE and Unity. All of them have the freeze after login problem.
I have tried to fix it by installing Nvidia's proprietary driver and "Additional Drivers" in Ubuntu, both of these didn't fix the problem. The problem with Additional Drivers option is that it won't let me select to the Nvidia Driver, it has the option there but whenever I click apply/save it turns back to the X org nouveau driver. Also after some research it appears upgrading the kernel will fix it so I upgraded to 4.8 the latest yet still no luck...
Computer Spec:
- AMD FX8350
- Nvidia GeForce 750ti
- 8GB of RAM
- 1TB WD
- Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P ATX AM3+ Motherboard
