The bug is in the nvidia driver 370, which appears to not exist in the
Ubuntu archive(?)
So this bug would be invalid for Ubuntu in general but it's also been
reported against Ubuntu proper using earlier driver versions. So this is
a duplicate of (newer) bug 1642241.
** Summary changed:
- [ 4.9 ] Greeter loop with a nvidia driver
+ nvidia driver fails to build [error: passing argument 5 of ‘get_user_pages’
from incompatible pointer type]
** Description changed:
