I can confirm this bug still persists in latest package 304.134 on XUbuntu 16.04 LTS.

The card is nForce 6150SE

OpenGL does not work, but I can login to xfce because it does not need a compositor.

Version 304.131 works OK. It was listed in aptitude for some reason, so I could just downgrade.

I cannot use nouveau on this card because it hard-crashes (entire screen becomes filled with lots of lines in a slightly diagonal screen gray & blue pattern, stops responding, only solution is to do a hard reset) when doing "intensive" graphics usage (intensive = opening a web browser and browser one or two pages). I didn't try PPA nouveau with latest drivers, just the ones provided by stock Ubuntu.
