Public bug reported: Running 16.04, after update, new Nvidia driver (304.132) caused login loop - resorted to nouveau driver and have arbitrary crashes and weird boot issues. Have not been able to reinstall old Nvidia (304.131). Have been checking the forum and see similar problems, nothing seems to work.
