Confirmed on Asus X73S (model K73SM) with NVIDIA GF108M [GeForce GT 630M] (rev a1) (optimus)
Driver: nvidia-375.39
I'm running Ubuntu 16.04.1 with Kernel = 4.4.0-67-generic

- The TTY workaround does NOT work for me.
- unity --replace works partially, messing up my unity preferences (conky does not work properly
- compiz --replace does not work neither (it breaks windows decoration -> the only escape is then to restart lightdm, loosing the session)

I could not rollback to 367.57, so I had to install the nvidia ppa

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt update

Then, the driver window shows up the #370.28 which works fine for me.
