Comment 20 for bug 1634802

I installed from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-304

It gives some warnings in dmesg, probably ok:

[ 16.590697] nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel.
[ 16.590697] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
[ 16.597921] nvidia: module verification failed: signature and/or required key missing - tainting kernel

[ 16.603283] NVRM: loading NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 304.132 Fri Sep 16 11:02:09 PDT 2016

starts X with correct resolution, but cinnamon fails :( Looking at dmesg, I have:

[ 92.875656] cinnamon[2152]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f69f0b917ae sp 00007ffd8fd75270 error 4 in libc-2.24.so[7f69f0b02000+1bd000]

Trying to start glxgears, also fails :(

  Major opcode of failed request: 155 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_GLXCreateContext)
  Value in failed request: 0x0
  Serial number of failed request: 30
  Current serial number in output stream: 31

glxinfo, similar error :(
