Public bug reported: Using ubuntu 14.04 with kernel 3.13.0-55-generic and the nouveau drivers hangs on the lightdm screen. I cannot enter password or move mouse. I also cant switch to text mode using ctrl +alt +f1, nor reboot with REISUB.
* Using kernel 3.13.0-54-generic works, I can login and use the system even when using the nouveau driver * Using kernel 3.13.0-55-generic with nvidia-331-updates also works. Proposed solution: Use the nvidia-311-updates driver instead of the open source nouveau driver. Please let me know if you need any additional information.
