[Bug 578832] [NEW] upgrade to lucid broke X on a 64bit machine with nvidia quadro FX 570

 

Public bug reported:

After an upgrade to lucid, the x server does not work anymore.

Kdm prompt is correctly shown, however as soon as one tries to log in
the server crashes and is restated.

Blacklisting nouveau and installing stock drivers from the nvidia site
fixes the issue.

Might be connected with 572937 since the symptom is the same.

Might also be connected to 522328 since nvidia drivers from nvidia site
were possibly installed on the machine prior to update.
