Eero Aaltonen (ejn) wrote : Problems with nvidia-367 and Quadro K2100M GPU after upgrading to 16.04

Previously using nvidia-367 with Ubuntu 14.04. Now Ubuntu 16.04 with

nvidia-367.57-0ubuntu0.16.04.1

After upgrade two graphics problems have occurred.

1) When booting with two monitors & extended desktop the monitors will go blank (this is accompanied by a popping sound, probably the speakers). This has also occurred repeatedly (tests ongoing).

2) Splash screen at startup that prompts for LUKS passphrase has really low resolution and does not accept input to decrypt the filesystem. Booting is currently only possible with the 'nomodeset' option.
