[Andreas Vollmayr <andreas.vollmayr@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Alberto,

fails with:

avollmay@avollmay-ThinkPad-X220:~$ apport-collect 1403008
Package nvidia-graphics-drivers-331-updates not installed and no hook 
available, ignoring

which is no surprise.
Removing the nvidia stuff is the triage proposed.


All my computers (all without Nvidia, one with AMD card, the others with 
Intel) try to install the Nvidia packages.
At the moment, I simply do not accept the updates.
There must be plenty of people having the same problem.

Where does the dependency stem from?
Shall I provide the apt log?

Regards, Andi.

Title:
  nvidia-331-updates installed by update prevent Gnome shell to start

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-331-updates package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Automatic Update (2014-12-11) prevents gnome shell from starting.
  No login screen.
  Just the ubuntu gnome logo
  Still resposible, can be e.g. shut down properly by >halt.
  The gnome shell (plymouth?) gets stuck during start.
  Virtual console works fine.

  System:
  Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 amd 64

  Problem:
  Log apt log file says, that for some obscure reason nvidia packages were installed during the update.
  Together with xserver-common, xserver-xorg-core, and plymouth updates.
  Unfortunatly there is not nvidia graphics card.
  Removing all nvidia packages seemed to solve the problem.

  The follwing packages were installed, which I think are wrong:
  libcuda1-331-updates
  nvidia-331-updates
  nvidia-331-updates-uvm
  nvidia-libopencl1-331-updates
  nvidia-prime
  nvidia-settings
