I am using Ubuntu alongside windows for 5 years, even though, I am not very technical on it. I have Nvidia on my windows, I am facing a never-ending-famous issue while Ubuntu boot(flickering, black screen, can't enter into Ubuntu). At the moment my Ubuntu is showing black screen and can't access to tty. I tried every solutions in internet, but nothing worked for me. I think Ubuntu crashed or something and I am going for a reinstall.

Many internet solutions says AMD or Intel are THE BEST graphics than Nvidia for Ubuntu. Also, I learned Nvidia is better for Windows. Anyway, I was ready to switch my graphics to AMD or Intel, but on a final thought, my question here,

  1. is there any way to stop this boot issue by retaining Nvidia on Windows only and using only Intel on Ubuntu only? Or
  2. should I completely remove Nvidia and install AMD or use built-in Intel graphics?

I hope there will any solution for this. If first question applies, can someone please give me steps to this?.

Answer to question 1: Try connecting an outside monitor via HDMI when getting the black screen. Sometimes(not always) the case is that the main desktop image goes on the outside monitor leaving the main one blank which is why it is black. If this helps then you can go to display settings an choose your main screen as your primary screen again.
