I've published a possibly fixed package for Trusty to my PPA at: https://launchpad.net/~tj/+archive/ubuntu/nvidia Please test and report back if that fixes the issue. If it does I can attach the fixed branch to bug #1431753 where the other release fixes are being tracked. --- original bug report follows ---- **WARNING:** This bug has been widely reported and has *many* automatic subscribers.
