Just a note that I still get this occasionally in Ubuntu 16.04 and 16.10, usually after moving to a new series of the nvidia driver, and my case the problem is that nvidia overwrites the /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so and /usr/lib/x86_64-linux- gnu/libGL.so files (eg "ldd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGL.so|grep -i nvidia" shows nvidia in the file).
A workaround when this happens is to install nvidia-prime and run "sudo prime-select intel" to reset to using the intel libraries. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/738789 Title: Ubuntu won't finish boot after nVidia proprietary driver install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/738789/+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
