Ubuntu18.04图形界面崩溃无法进入桌面问题解决；cuda-9-0 (>= 9.0.176)的另一种解决办法

追加：【已解决，有一张显卡硬件不稳定】

参考我的最终记录：

首先说明我的情况：

Ubuntu18.04，配置了CUDA9.0，在运行一段时间后，图形界面突然崩溃，当时正在使用Teamviewer远程操作Matlab。

报错主要是“starting nvidia persistence daemon”循环启动失败，nvidia-smi调不出。几条日志如下：

百度谷歌搜索无果，心态要崩，因为遇到很多次Ubuntu图形系统崩溃都修理不好，而对于现在的图形处理等任务又不能不用图形桌面。虽然在学习中也知道了一些lightdm和gdm的东西，但几个命令操作来加上重启都无效。想着把nvidia的东西都重新搞一遍，又不得不搞cuda的事情。

实话说心累，Linux的图形桌面总感觉不稳定，不像Windows那种图形界面就是内核一部分，机器启动就是带桌面的，否则就是进不去。折腾了很久，最终决定将cuda重新安装，因为我记得cuda安装的时候会装驱动。还是我原来博客中的问题，apt安装不上cuda，用aptitude卸载cuda，结果系统桌面就正常了。

接着使用aptitude安装cuda，无奈系统又和原来一样了，无法进入桌面：

像我们这种非专业运维的，遇到这种问题真的很难处理。现在也只能继续尝试解决，先卸载cuda：

sudo aptitude remove cuda

再去掉nvidia的东西：

sudo apt-get purge nvidia-*

重启系统，桌面能显示登录界面，可是登录不进去了。后面继续操作，升级，重启，发现可以进入桌面了，就是会闪烁，因为用了非nvidia的驱动。因为安装cuda的时候会自动配置驱动，所以我一直都在尝试cuda重装的事情。使用aptitude可以安装成功，只是桌面系统的崩溃问题无法解决，且安装成功后已经无法调用nvidia-smi了。所以我原来博客提供的aptitude安装的办法就无效了，继续搜索中发现了一个可行的办法。

还是先用前面一个命令purge，将nvidia的东西都卸载了。接着：

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa

以前我都没有用过这个，因为我用dpkg安装的cuda到/var/cuda-repo-9-0-local，然后apt/aptitude install cuda的。但是aptitude不行，apt报错依赖问题，所以这里才添加这个源。接着update，然后：

sudo apt install cuda

居然可以了，安装到底都没错误：

至此，桌面环境正常了，cuda也正常了。

总结来说，饶了很多弯路。原来以为又是图形界面问题，又是gdm之类的管理器的问题。后来专门从nvidia的cuda和驱动上入手，终于解决了这个问题。所以以前用的aptitude能安装cuda，但是出问题后就再也修理不好。换成了添加库用apt的方式安装，所有问题都解决了。
