** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  NOTE: First I think it's the same bug as #738789 but in my situation GDM
  appears and I'm able to login before it freeze.
  
  Follow steps on
  http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Hardware/X/ProprietaryDrivers#Installation
  :
  
  1. Boot stock system on compatible video hardware, using the appropriate open source driver (or -vesa). By default, Ubuntu boots with the open source driver.
  -> boot successfully and able to login (but no Unity 3D)
  2. Note the contents of /etc/X11/xorg.conf (or simply note absence of the file)
  -> xorg.conf file not exists
  3.Go to System : Administration : Hardware Drivers
  4.Verify that it correctly identifies that a video driver is available for this hardware
  5.Install the recommended driver
  -> There's a driver avaliable and I can install it successfully.
  6.Verify that a *.ko file is installed properly for the correct kernel(s)
  find  /lib/modules/ -type f -ls -iname '*.ko' | grep -E "/nvidia-current.ko|/nvidia-173.ko|/nvidia-96.ko|/fglrx.ko"
  Check that the timestamp of the file is correct.
  -> Timestamp of file is about the time I run command above.
  7.Note new contents of /etc/X11/xorg.conf. It should list the name of the proprietary driver as a minimum.
  -> The name of the proprietary driver is not exist. There are only these line in xorg.conf
  1: 
  2: Section "Device"
  3:      Identifier "Default Device"
  4:      Option "Nologo" "True"
  5: EndSection
  6: 
  
  8.Reboot
  9.Verify the GUI display comes up
  -> Display comes up with strange resolution and freeze (but able to move mouse) after login.
  10.Verify the proprietary driver loaded
   grep -E "LoadModule:.*\"nvidia|fglrx\"" /var/log/Xorg.0.log 
  -> Found (II) LoadModule: "nvidia"
