post #6: "Version 304 is the only version with legacy support for older GeForce series such as 6800 GT" I have found that my card used to require nvidia-304, running ubuntu- drivers showed that a newer driver (nvidia-340) is now recommended for my graphics card, this driver does not have this MTRR

Not a solution to the bug, but a solution to the problem... I have found that the driver for my graphics card (GeForce 210) has been updated from nvidia-304 to nvidia-340, both drivers being listed in Ubuntu 16.10 as available for my card. Anyone else with the problem as reported can check this

The errors as reported in #4 are now happening in Ubuntu 16.10, using kernel 4.8.0-26-generic on an amd64 system. This is preventing me from being able to login to the desktop. I need the nvidia 304 drivers as they're required for my GT 6 series graphics cards. -- You received this bug notifica

this bug appeared on upgrading from Ubuntu 16.04 to 16.10 on an amd64 system and breaks Nvidia making my PC unable to log into the desktop. I have an older graphics card which requires the Nvidia 304 driver. This patch appears to fix the bug by providing the missing symbols, could it be included
