Bug Description

On a fresh Ubuntu Gnome Install, added 3.16 GNOME PPA (installed the gnome 3.16, rebooted) and then installed nvidia-346 nvidia-settings nvidia-prime. After that the gnome-shell was unable to work, leaving this message on dmesg:

    [ 9.916090] gnome-shell[1300]: segfault at 14 ip 00007feef5b5cad2 sp 00007ffd4a3a2690 error 4 in libmutter.so.0.0.0[7feef5b26000+e4000]

I am using a Laptop Dell Vostro 5470 with a Nvidia GeForce GT 740M.

I am affected with this bug too.
I also tested other GNOME distros (Fedora 21 and 22) there is the same bug.
If I use Unity or KDE environment everything works.
