Bug Description

This PC stop working after installing pycuda and others devices for it. The black screen of death appeared. The driver of nvidia stopped working after it. Now my screen can't go 1080p, because of Xserver driver. :)
Thanks NVidia for screwing everything!
P.S.: Screwing because i won't say the f-word here.
