I tested nvidia-304 (nvidia-304-updates and nvidia-304 are currently the same version for me (and Yakkety hasn't hit Feature Freeze anyway so they shouldn't be different) - 304.131). When I logged in, I would get a black screen before it would go back to the login screen (with the login sound being played). So it's impossible to log in with the proprietary Nvidia drivers.
Btw, thanks Christopher for telling me what to do to improve this bug report :) My current to-do list is: - Attempt to SSH into the computer whilst it is frozen and grab some logs (dmesg.txt and /var/log/Xorg.0.log) - Bisect Ubuntu versions and Linux kernel versions (or should I test xserver-xorg-video-nouveau versions and stick with the bundled Linux kernal for each Ubuntu version?) [LONG-TERM] - Report the bug upstream Is there anything else that you'd recommend doing or what do I need to do to get this bug marked as Triaged? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1522976 Title: [NVIDIA GeForce 7100] X freezes after opening Amazon (Ubuntu Web Browser) or System Settings in Unity (also other situations) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/1522976/+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
