GIVEN:
Laptop: ASUS ROG GM501
Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce GTX1070
RAM: 16 GB
HDD: 1 TB
OS: Kali 2019.3
SYMPTOMS:
After entering username/password from initial prompt, the screen goes blank except for a small area of hashed color in upper left corner.
Then, I get a series of 'stop jobs' that refer to 'gdm' also one that points to
'nouveau : systemd-logind failed to idle channel 2'
System shuts down after that.
I feel like I am very close here but I suspect perhaps I am missing drivers for GPU even though it works when I boot from USB drive with Kali live.
Anyone out there that might know the answer to this ? If perhaps booting into live or in recovery mode to add missing drivers ?
