Ubuntu 14.04 + Nvidia graphic card = freeze

[Mark Rein]

Ubuntu 14.04 and Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 installations freeze. The freeze looks like your typical graphic driver problem.

If I install Ubuntu 13.10, then the proprietary drivers, and then upgrade to 14.04, everything works fine. It takes several hours more than it should though.

Threfore I assume it's a problem with the open-source graphic drivers.

Possible fix? Using proprietary drivers during the installation?

Note: Lubuntu 14.04 installation doesn't freeze and it works fine with the open-source drivers.
