Black screen after installing Nvidia drivers on Debian Stretch

I have installed latest Debian Stretch on my MSI laptop and I want to install Nvidia proprietary drivers for my GTX 1060 graphics card. I followed this guide on Debian's wiki: https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers . Here are the steps I followed on my fresh install: First I added stretch-backports and 'contrib non-free' postfix. My /etc/apt/sources.list dump: # # deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 9.7.0 _Stretch_ - Official amd64 NETINST 20190123-19:36]/ stretch main #deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 9.7.0 _Stretch_ - Official amd64 NETINST 20190123-19:36]/ stretch main deb http://ftp.hu.debian.org/debian/ stretch main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.hu.debian.org/debian/ stretch main deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security stretch/updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security stretch/updates main # stretch-updates, previously known as 'volatile' deb http://ftp.hu.debian.org/debian/ stretch-updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.hu.debian.org/debian/ stretch-updates main # stretch-backports deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian stretch-backports main contrib non-free Then I ran the followings as root: $ dpkg --add-architecture i386 $ apt-get update $ apt-get install build-essential $ apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r|sed 's/[^-]*-[^-]*-//') $ apt-get -t stretch-backports install nvidia-driver I rebooted the system but on boot where gnome should have started I see a black screen without a cursor. I do have access to other terminals. Here is my Xorg.0.log: [ 23.138] (--) Log file renamed from "/var/log/Xorg.pid-823.log" to "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" [ 23.140] X.Org X Server 1.19.2 Release Date: 2017-03-02 [ 23.140] X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 [ 23.140] Build Operating System: Linux 4.9.0-8-amd64 x86_64 Debian [ 23.140] Current Operating System: Linux zion 4.9.0-8-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.130-2 (2018-10-27) x86_64 [ 23.140] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.9.0-8-amd64 root=UUID=79569e63-703c-4939-ae49-32f4997c9c72 ro quiet [ 23.140] Build Date: 03 November 2018 03:09:11AM [ 23.140] xorg-server 2:1.19.2-1+deb9u5 (https://www.debian.org/support) [ 23.140] Current version of pixman: 0.34.0 [ 23.140] Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version.
