[Bug 1362848] Re: ubuntu 14.04 after install nvidia binary driver 331.89 black screen and freeze
Just as addition to my previous - #15 - post: I did not edit xorg.conf
manually. It was generated automatically at some point.
Also - I'm not sure is it really necessary to install 331 driver. I used
it before, so I just reinstalled it, but if You used some other version,
You can try reinstalling that one in the first place.
And I'm glad I could help Simone. :)
