  1. This link explains how to disable wayland on boot for Ubuntu 19.04.
    It only requires the wayland driver disabled. The nomodeset does not have to be applied.

    Once editing is complete, you can install the Nvidia driver from a terminal as follows

    sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall

    or

    sudo apt install nvidia-driver-(driver number to install)

  2. if this link works for you, pls paste that solution in here. amdgpu driver refuses to load on 19.04 not that I made an error.... it's /boot/grub/grub.cfg for the timeout setting.
