I added a Nvidia GeForce GT 1030 to my OpenElec HTPC. I was using the Intel graphic chipsets before.

On booting, the BIOS screen appear, then the OpenElec logo, no problem. But after that, I have a terminal screen loading xorg for a while and then fail:

Failed to start Xors Server

I checked the status and got this:

● xorg.service - Xorg Server

I also tried to install a new fresh OS, and got the same result. But know, I can't avec acces the machine with ssh.

Note: I'm on the last stable version, not master. But I checked your merged PR and found nothing about nvidia issues: https://github.com/OpenELEC/OpenELEC.tv/pulls?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=base%3Amaster%20merged%3A%3E2017-05-02T19%3A20%3A35Z

According to this article:

In terms of Linux driver coverage, with the NVIDIA 381.22 Linux driver released earlier this month, its change-log has been updated this week to reflect GeForce GT 1030 support.

Your package version is set to 375.39.

Do you think this can cause the error? I saw Linux incompatible card working but without performance, but working.
