Are the other affected users also running GeForce 6200 or similar boards? As an experiment, try reverting the security patch here: ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/patches/security/CVE-2012-0946/
You should be able to do this without reinstalling the whole driver by manually reverting the patch in /usr/src/nvidia-current-295.40 and then rebuilding just the kernel module using DKMS. (May want to have X stopped / module unloaded while doing this.) GeForce 6xxx series isn't susceptible to the vulnerability. ** CVE added: http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi- bin/cvename.cgi?name=2012-0946 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/982485 Title: nvidia 295.40 breaks unity 3d To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/982485/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
