Old NVIDIA G73 (GeForce 7600 GS) here. Fresh install. Freezes with Wayland and xorg using the nouveau driver, also seeing various flashing and other issues when using the recommended nvidia driver (+ freezes).
Did not see any of these issues on 17.04 or earlier versions. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1705951 Title: Ubuntu 17.10 freezes soon after login. Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Edited 1: After some updates received, it freezes just after login, making any action impossible. I have a PC with a nVidia GeForce 6800XT graphics card. I installed ubuntu 17.10 and have had many problems with crashes and freezes. After login, the normal screen appears, the screen flashes and the top bar disappears, flashes again and appears normal, but frozen. Clicking again blinks back to the login screen. In order to access the system I was forced to install GNOME Classic. I noticed that in ubuntu 17.04 and ubuntu GNOME 16.04 it works normal.
