I just installed Ubuntu Studio on my HP OMEN laptop and it installed successfully and needed to reboot. Once the laptop turned back on I got this set of errors and I'm unsure how to fix this. This is also the only screen I can see and cannot use my laptop.

nvidia-gpu 0000:01:00.3: i2c timeout error e0000000
ucsi_ccg 1-0008: i2c transfer failed -110 
ucsi_ccg 1-0008: ucsi_ccg_init failed - -110
hci0: Failed to send Intel_Write_DDC (-22)

Edit: here is the new lines of error on startup nouveau 0000:1:00.0 fifo SCHED_ERROR 08 [] nouveau 0000:1:00.0 DRM: failed to idle channel 0 [DRM]

  • Are you able to switch to tty1([Ctrl]+[Alt]+[F1]) after seeing this message? –  Dec 06 '20 at 04:06
  • Yes and I logged in and there are a bunch of errors with nouveau. What should I do next? – Mat Dec 06 '20 at 14:33
  • There is a slight chance that your desktop environment is broken. Try this: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop. –  Dec 06 '20 at 14:33
  • Could you update your question to include those nouveau errors? –  Dec 06 '20 at 14:34
  • I updated the post and tried to do the install and its unable to locate the ubuntu studio package, unable to locate apt-get package, and install package – Mat Dec 06 '20 at 15:58

Try following the instructions here: Is nomodeset still required?

You may need to hit the ESC key during boot to view the grub menu.

I concur with TheCummuter; nomodeset may be part of the answer. Have you installed the Nvidia proprietary drivers? If not, try this:

  1. Add nomodeset to your Grub configuration by following these steps (this is a Dell support page, but it is the same for most systems)
  2. Reboot. Hopefully this will bring you to the desktop.
  3. Install the proprietary drivers via Software & Updates
  4. Reboot again.

So long as everything works properly, you should be able to update Grub one more time to remove nomodeset and everything will work properly.

Hope this helps

  • I did the nomodeset but under the install ubuntu studio and I still have the same screen. Can I install the drivers through the tty1? – Mat Dec 07 '20 at 05:18
  • I have never installed video drivers from tty1, but the answer in this thread might give you the step-by-step to do so. –  Dec 07 '20 at 05:43
  • Okay so I performed the following commands (I apologize ahead of time for not writing it in code. I'm using my phone to type this) 'nvidia-xconfig' then 'sudo apt install nvidia-utils-455' then sudo apt install nvidia-driver-455' and needs the disk reader but everytime I press enter like it says in the directions it just repeats the same message to put in the disc when I have the USB in – Mat Dec 07 '20 at 07:04
  • Hmm ... I can imagine this is quite frustrating for you. Perhaps it would be better to try the second-line drivers from Ubuntu? sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall, then reboot. If this doesn't get you into a GUI, then I'm really not sure how to solve the problem. –  Dec 07 '20 at 07:43
