| Legacy Dell laptop M1530 with NVdia GT-8600: Install worked great and everything works fine with the nouveau driver. NVidia 340 driver installs, but system boots to an opengl 2.1 error followed by black screen and a mouse cursor (no kwin, plasma, or krunner.... and thus ctrl-alt-t fails to open a terminal). Driver must be removed by ctl-alt-f1 (sudo nvdia* purge) to restore "functionality".
Side note: NVidia 340 driver works fine with 19.10 Kubntu daily install on same hw.
