Ubuntu 18.10 problem with Nvidia 340 drivers
I have a Nvidia 210 graphic card but, after installing the upgrade from Ubuntu 18.04 to 18.10, Nvidia 340 drivers were installed and my system got stuck at the Ubuntu logo screen. I went into the recovery mode and removed them and now everything is fine. So, what is the issue, and how can I fix it? Or, is there an alternative to using those drivers?

NVIDIA make script is using cc link for compiling nvidia.ko. check cc link with command: sudo update-alternatives --list cc and if necessary replace cc target with command: sudo update-alternatives --config cc.
NVIDIA driver and Linux kernel must be compiled with the same gcc version.
install NVIDIA kernel driver with command: sudo apt-get install nvidia-340 or manually run NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.107.run script as root user.
after installation generate proper xorg.conf file with command: sudo nvidia-xconfig. normally nvidia-xconfig set proper value of DPI for your monitor.
to adopt proper DPI setting for your monitor specify your desired DPI by placing desired value inside section "Monitor" of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf. for example: Option "DPI" "96 x 96"
logout an login to apply new settings for the X server.
