[Test case] 1) Enable proposed, install the new nvidia-340 2) Uninstall nvidia-340 3) See if either /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-340.conf or /lib/modprobe.d/nvidia-340.conf. [Regression potential] Low, since it should move a blacklist file from /etc to /lib ______________________________________________________________ Following a successful install and subsequent use of nvidia-340 - uninstallation of nvidia via Additional Drivers led to a reboot to a desktop at 640x480 px. Investigation found an nvidia created file left on the system blacklisting nouveau, deleted file and rebooted to normal desktop. Didn't think about ubuntu-reporting this - can try and replicate and apport-collect if it's of any use.
