Hey, I have the same problem and are looking for a solution as well. I am not sure if you need more system/hardware informations. I added the dmesg output anyway.
I have the same error with ubuntu 14.04, ubuntu 14.10 and I tried Linux Mint (with is the same then ubuntu 14.04) as well. Just on ubuntu 14.04 I have the "... broken pipe" message additional to the normal output. Let me know if you need more information. ** Attachment added: "dmesg.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-304/+bug/1364630/+attachment/4315800/+files/dmesg.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-304 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1364630 Title: init: Error while reading from descriptor: Broken pipe To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/upstart/+bug/1364630/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
