I changed from nouveau drivers to the recommended NVIDIA 384.90. After restarting I saw the message about the software rendering mode.
Now I reenabled nouveau drivers and it's still starting the same way. I also tried the other two other available drivers and it still didn't fix it.



Right now I'm back at the recommended NVIDIA 384.90 driver.



inxi -b


gives out the following about my graphics driver:



drivers: fbdev (unloaded: vesa) FAILED: nouveau


even while I'm using the NVIDIA driver.
Also my graphics card (NVIDIA NVS 5200M) is definitely active.



I am running Linux Mint 18.2.
