Running Rpi on a Ubuntu terminal...
-
So, the one thing that stands out on the raspberry pi images is that if you exit ES, it goes straight to a terminal. I like this, as I don't need much else for my emulation station.
As it stands, I've attempted this but the terminal reports ES cannot start without a graphics driver (even when gnome and Nvidia drivers had been installed but disabled in favor of the terminal).
Ideally, what I'd like to do is to install only a terminal, apt-get only what I need and autoboot into ES on boot.
Is this feasible?

Yes, the drivers you installed work with X.org.

The RetroPie installation script should already do that - auto-login via the current DM and starting Emulationstation into an X.org session.

Not without X.org at the moment.
