Title:
  System randomly won't complete boot

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Since the incomplete/broken "fix" for #1431753 was released, and hence
  NVidia drivers version 340 were installed AND enabled on my machine
  (where previously I had 331 installed and disabled) this has started
  happening:

  About 50-75% of the times (very rough estimation), when I boot, the
  boot gets stuck at the purple screen with the "Ubuntu" word with four
  red dots below.

  Systematically, when this happens, that screen is preceded by a black screen with a lot of errors, of which I attach a picture (yes, I know, it's unreadable, but it's all I can do).
  If anybody tells me in which log files those errors can be found, I will be happy to attach them.

  Normally, that is, when the issue does not happen and the boot is
  succesful, the black screen preceding the purple screen would only
  contain one line with an unrelated error that has to do with USB.
