[Bug 1482711] Re: X displays nothing instead of login screen

 

And here I am realizing I should have said more. Both versions performed
identically, but I wrote a lot more about the 3.13 because I could
compare the effects of installing it from the upstream source with the
effects of installing it from the package manager. Whereas the most I
could say about the other was, "I couldn't install the nvidia kernel
module for it, and thus couldn't really test it properly."

Title:
  X displays nothing instead of login screen

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The kernel version in the auto-generated information is wrong, because
  when using the kernel with the problem, I can't do anything, including
  send bug reports. This happened with the newest kernel update to
  3.13.0-61. I am using -59, which still works, to send the report.
  Since this is at least possibly graphics related bug I should also
  state that the update automatically changed the nvidia driver from
  331-updates to 340-updates, however Nvidia's page for the 340 driver
  does not include my graphics card (GeForce 610M). I do use
