I uploaded a potato quality movie of the boot process.
It also seems to activate/switch to Intel grfx at some point.

I suppose this is with the autostart trick? Makes sense as the xserver will try to start without a proper configuration before autostart can run and enable the nvidia driver.
One could create a systemd unit that sets up the nvidia driver at the correct time (Before=xorg). Perhaps a simple "fix" would be to include a script with LE that helps forcing nvidia/nvidia-legacy correctly.

Is this something that GTX1050/60/70/80 setups would have similar problems with?
Because haven't had many complaints from them.

Any card that doesn't trigger with this udev rule won't work:
LibreELEC.tv/96-nvidia.rules at master · LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub
There are problematic cards as you have experienced with the 1030. Basically, any card matching ATTR{class}=="0x030000", ATTRS{vendor}=="0x10de" will be configured either nvidia (as long as there's a matching ATTRS{device}=="0x1xxx"), otherwise it'll be configured as nvidia-legacy. Then xorg-configure will symlink the correct driver into /var/lib.
That should be enough info for anyone with an nvidia card that doesn't work to troubleshoot it.

Well, I have/see no problems booting Ubuntu with 381.22, also no delays.
I'm gonna add a drive to the pc now for LibreELEC purposes.

The issue isn't with the driver, but the autodetection mechanism in LE that is supposed put the correct driver in place and tell xorg to use it.

I did some testing with older builds. (i5/4GB/1050 gtx)

February? Hmm... And whose development builds are those?

Sorry, escalade's builds

You still happen to have that February .tar file (or .img.gz) so I could doublecheck?
escalade himself perhaps has an archive? LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-8.0-devel-20170216.tar

I guess I haven't done my homework very well. The GT1030 apparently has no CUDA and no NVENC...
No cuda okay, but I would have liked to do some hevc encoding every now and then.
Not sure yet whether I'm going to return the gfx card.

That was to be expected.

I am unable to find the LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-8.0-devel-20170216 build; i just got the gt1030 in now am unable to use it. Where would one download this beta release? Seems LE has no archive to browse through. Can anyone help me get this build?
-
Hurray! Got me a "working" gt1030 setup, with the LE "extended" beta version. Needed to force the nvidia driver as mentioned before, system boot time is also as mentioned pretty long, but the system runs. Even gpu temps are shown. "normal" h.264 live tv playback is fine. no hevc hardware decoding.
For those like me, who just tought the 1030 card would work out of the blue, and to find out it doesnt, this solution is enough to bridge to gap until stable LE builds with stable nvidia drivers are released.
And yes i know, i should have read and search the forum first before buying the gt1030

Interesting to hear as some didn't get it to work even when forced which I couldn't quite make sense of
Could you post output of lspci -vv?
