Comment 32 for bug 1615864

Answer to your question; still reproducible, yes.

Well that did not go all that well. It got me stuck in a 640x480. Even doing a xrandr -q only gave me that resolution.
Per the URL posted above.

This is Not recommended, at least after my test:
Run sudo apt-get purge nvidia-*
Run sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa and then sudo apt-get update.
Run sudo apt-get install nvidia-364.
Reboot and your graphics issue should be fixed. >Not really<

I had to purge nvidia again to get to Nouveau and then work my way through that mess to the Nivida v.304.x tested again. Then back to the terminal and the xrandr line.
I went into Synaptic and unchecked ppa:graphics-drivers and went from there.
Mainly square one. Back to 304.131 tested and using xrandr -s 1920x1080 in the terminal again.
