Public bug reported:
I have been using nvidia-graphics-drivers-470 for a while. In January, I
tried the 495 drivers, but this resulted in failing to start the GUI
when booting: the mouse cursor would appear, but then the screen would
clear and the switch to graphics would be attempted again. This would
repeat until restarted, so I used recovery mode to test that a) it still
happened with that (yes) and b) to go back to the 470 drivers via the
root terminal.
For some reason, yesterday xscreensaver had a problem getting the right
GLcontext. I noticed that the 510 drivers were available, so used
Software & Updates's Additional Drivers to install those.
Exactly the same issue as with the 495 drivers: the mouse cursor appears
for a second, then disappears, and reappears, and.. until I reboot and
go back to 470.
I am using Ubuntu MATE 21.10 with a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti card.
