Title:
  after installing nvidia drivers / CUDA the screen turns black after
  reboot

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-331 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  - Ubuntu 14.04
  - GeForce GTX 670
  - Large Yamasaki monitor (DVI cable)

  I'm trying to install the nvidia drivers (required by CUDA), but after
  the successful installation the screen turns permanently black after
  the first reboot.

  I repeated the procedure several times, using different version of the drivers and different sources (i.e., nvidia download center, ubuntu's standard repos, and the xorgs-edgers ppa).
  The pattern was constant in all these attempt.
