Hi everyone,
I installed a dual-boot of Kali with Mint by following the docs, and then followed the "Install NVIDIA GPU Drivers" page. Nouveau keeps causing random crashes. Unfortunately after installing nvidia-driver and nvidia-cuda-toolkit only the nouveau module is being loaded. Secure Boot is disabled. I could only find troubleshooting for other distros on Google; does anyone know how I should begin figuring this out?
I tried blacklisting nouveau by editing the GRUB menu and adding "rdblacklist=nouveau" as a parameter; also placed a config file in modprobe.d/. After rebooting, kali crashes soon after the boot menu (before GUI) and doesn't respond to commands. Had to fresh install.
