Public bug reported:

After a fresh installation from the 64 bit alt CD onto a software raid0
configuration of two SSD drives everything works as expected. After
installing the NVIDIA drivers from the hardware manager dialogue and
rebooting i have no permissions to view and use sound, shutdown or
reboot (just logs out to gdm and refuses to shutdown from there too),
cannot mount any drives, or any system utilities requiring su
permissions. If un installation of the NVIDIA drivers is performed and
rebooted the problem disappears. This is repeatable on another system
using SSD drives and raid 0 vis software raid (mdadm). When not using
software raid and no SSD drives the problem doesnt exist. The problem
can intermittently exist when using either software raid 0 with ordinary
drives, or when using SSD drives and no raid.
