Public bug reported: I have an Asus machine that's about 4-5 years old. It has an integrated Nvidia graphics card for which I need the restricted drivers to enable stuff like Compiz. I installed them and rebooted the machine. It hung on restart after the Ubuntu splash screen/progress bar thingy went away. I've upgraded to 8.04, but haven't tested the restricted drivers because I had to reinstall Ubuntu to fix the situation last time (thank God it was a fresh install!).
