[Bug 1539597] Re: unity-control-center crashed with SIGSEGV in gdk_display_get_event()

 

The default Unity DE fails to load altogether with the nvidia driver, it
just bounces right back to the login screen. Unity does load with the
nouveau driver activated but it slows to a crawl and eventually just
freezes. But that hardware has never been able to run Unity w/nouveau
(llvmpipe / Gallium 0.4 on NV4C).
