Bug Description

After update and restart the computer fails to boot as it shows that it is running in the low graphics mode. Trying to troubleshoot with the use of backup configuration / default configuration fails. I had to downgrade kernel to access to the computer.

This happens to me as well. Able to access my computer from 3.19.0-25. Attempting to boot in kernel 3.19.0-26 causes low graphics mode followed by a freeze on "starting version 219".
