Public bug reported:
Currently running with nouveau driver.
After activating nvidia-current driver trough additional drivers I did a
reboot. The system then fails to load the graphical driver, and freezes
completly. I'm not able to get into a shell or anything. The system
powers down when pressing power button.
To fix this, I booted in failsafe mode and removed the nvidia-current
driver via root console.
