Title:
  When logging in to Unity, the Desktop session crashes

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When launching either Thunderbird or Firefox, my desktop session
  crashes. I see the underlying command line stuff for a second, and
  then lightdm launches and I have to re-log in again.

  This seems to coincide with my recent issue of not being able to
  launch Unity or Gnome Shell with nvidia-current drivers installed. The
  only DE that works for me is Classic Gnome w/o effects.

  When launching Unity from lightdm, the behavior is the same as mentioned above -- the desktop crashes, and immediately spawns lightdm again. I can repeat this cycle ad-nauseum.
