Yesterday I updated my pc then this issue arised. Notebook : Asus K55v Graphics adapter : Nvidia GeForce 610M ( + Intel optimus tecnology ) OS : Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit
Drivers : xserver-xorg-video-intel version 2:2.99.910-0ubuntu1.3 (trusty-updates) ubuntu-drivers-common version 1:0.2.91.7 (trusty-updates) nvidia-331 version 331.38-0ubuntu7.1 ( trusty-updates) No problem arise when the external VGA monitor is not connected, the notebook (without external VGA monitor), works fine in both mode (Nvidia or Intel switched using nvidia-prime) and 3D acceleration also work fine (over 5000 FPS in glxgears) when "Nvidia" is selected. When the VGA monitor is connected it can works only in "Intel" mode, switching to GPU "Nvidia" lead the problems that the others have reported above. Waiting for a stable fix, the workaround suggested by Dragoneyes at post #41 (downgrade ubuntu-drivers-common to version 1:0.2.91.4) worked for me.

Yesterday the set of packages below [1] was updated. I shut down, booted this morning and found out that I was not shown the lightdm login screen: I was stuck at the purple screen that precedes it (into which I enter my disk encryption password). Now the funny thing is that I could hear the lightdm startup sound and could actually login by typing my password (disk activity and started processes verify I am actually logged in), but I can't see anything: I'm still stuck at the puple screen. Uninstalling the nvidia drivers solved the problem: I'm typing this in a browser window using the nouveau drivers. I atttempted switching to nvidia-304, but that doesn't work either. Using those drivers I am shown the lightdm login screen, but after logging in I'm stuck with a screen showing only the background image. Nothing else is available, no keyboard or mouse trickery will reveal any menu, dialog or terminal to gain access. Since nouveau doesn't support a multi-monitor setup, it would be great if I someone could tell me how to get the nvidia drivers working again.
