I am using a dual-booting system with Windows 10pro and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

I upgraded my nvidia driver in Ubuntu and set it to be used in the Software and Updates settings. The next time I tried to boot and every time since, I get a message saying

The system is running in low graphics mode

and I can't proceed any further.

What should I do?

When the message that "your system is running in low-graphics mode" appears, press Ctrl+Alt+F1, then login with your credentials.

And then, run the following commands:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop sudo reboot

  • In order to arrive at the Terminal from the above screen, Start your computer while pressing these buttons: CTRL + ALT + F1 and then enter your username and password before moving on.

    Then Try these commands

    sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get -d install --reinstall gdm sudo apt-get remove --purge gdm sudo apt-get install gdm sudo reboot
