Public bug reported:
I am running Ubuntu 16.04 since at least four months, always with the
nvidia proprietary drivers (installed from the repository). I used
nvidia-361 for a while with no issues (and i need it for steam gaming).
However, an update installed on my machine yesterday breaks the nvidia
drivers. I tried purging the driver, rebooting and reinstalling and i
tried a newer version for the ubuntu-drivers ppa. Nothing helps: With
the nvidia driver installed, i get a low-resolution login screen, but
cannot login due to missing 3d acceleration. Running on nouveau works
fine.
This seems very strange to since everything worked until this afternoon.
Yesterday, i was happily playing games on steam, installed some updates
and now, my graphics are broken.
