[Bug 1362848] Re: ubuntu 14.04 after install nvidia binary driver 331.89 black screen and freeze
When using binary driver nvidia-331 (tested one) from additional drivers
my laptop keeps freezing after a while. Is this related to this bug? Its
frustrating.
Will it help to test others? Like 331-updates? 304?
What about legacy, what is that?

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 64bit, after install nvidia binary driver
331.89 from Additional Drivers application then reboot, it shows black
screen, no login window, I even can't use ctrl+alt+F2 to switch to
text mode, then I reboot and go to recovery mode, use 'prime-select
intel' to switch to intel GPU and reboot, everything is fine, but as
soon as I switch to nvidia GPU, still same issue.
