Title:
Unable to successfully install NVidia drivers (machine doesn't
successfully restart)
Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-331 package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Trying to install the tested NVidia drivers and after restart the
machine, the machine quickly started slowing after the log in screen
was shown.
The machine is still responsive over SSH and htop showed that Xorg
(and occasionally compiz) were taking 100% of 2 cores for several
minutes. The machine was recovered by `apt-get purge nvidia-*`, which
reported a failure for some of the packages. It's possible that the
upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10 is the source of the issue as I'm not sure
that VirtualBox was successfully upgraded.
