I have been succesfully using 304.134-0ubuntu1 for a while on Kubuntu
zesty.

A week or two ago, Software Updater started offering me version
304.134-0ubuntu0.16.10.1
It had never offered me the "fixed" version 304.132-0ubuntu2, but only
the original version 304.132-0ubuntu1, which did not load into the
kernel (with the mtrr_add and mtrr_del errors).
I tried the
Well, I ended up with the nvidia-304 304.131-0ubuntu5 version, which
loads into the kernel just fine, and also allows Hugin to function...
I am curious - since the fixed 304.132-0ubuntu2 version loads into the kernel,
why has it not yet made it into Yakkety?
Since I cannot use it (see comment
I still have the login loop with 4.8.0-32-generic GNU/Linux after

it seems that the bug for 16.04 was fixed in the package nvidia-

However in 16.10
Confirmed I was unsuccessful with 304.131 and 304.132 but I just
finished installing 304.134 on my 4.8.0-30-generic kernel, no more login
loop and I can get back onto NetFlix.

Ah. Apparently 304.134 release I got was from the graphics-drivers PPA.

Title:
Could not insert module
Apparently, there was a nvidia-304-304.134 release in the past week. I
still had to uncomment the "#PATCH[1]="buildfix_kernel_4.3.patch" line
in dkms.conf and run 'dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-304' to get rid of the
mtrr-add and mtrr-del references so it would load, but the speed problem

Installed the 301.132-ubuntu2 release from Zesty on Mom's computer.
That does indeed allow the module to load, but puts you right back at
the GLX error.
Removed the nvidia-304 package and thankfully, nouveau seems to have
improved somewhat and now works for her.

I also have this problem (on the computer of my dear old mother, 250
miles away, so remote support through SSH.) so I'll be happy to lend
a hand if I can...

doesn't work: I see the big green Nvidia logo, and then a black screen
instead of sddm, but
I installed the fix from zesty, and it loads into the kernal fine, and I
can set the resolution that I want.
However...
Since before now I could not get nvidia-304 to work, I had been using nouveau.
I had been able to start the panorama program Hugin, but when I tried to open

It seems to me, that THIS bug is fixed. The module got loaded into
kernel, there are no longer unsatisfied global references.
But like others have have commented, something else seems to be wrong.

I've found a hack that will enable nvidia module to insert into kernel:
Uncomment this line:
#PATCH[1]="buildfix_kernel_4.3.patch"
in file /usr/src/nvidia-304-304.132/dkms.conf
then sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-304
In Ubuntu 16.04 it was uncommented, because there were some mtrr changes

and only upgrading from "nvidia-304 304.131-0ubuntu5" to "nvidia-304

On the other hand,
Just to add to my experience, adding #undef CONFIG_MTRR doesn't seem to
be enough :( Besides the issues with cinnamon, I tried kodi, and it also
crashes

Not a solution to the bug, but a solution to the problem...
I have found that the driver for my graphics card (GeForce 210) has been
updated from nvidia-304 to nvidia-340, both drivers being listed in Ubuntu
16.10 as available for my card.

this bug appeared on upgrading from Ubuntu 16.04 to 16.10 on an amd64
system and breaks Nvidia making my PC unable to log into the desktop.
I have an older graphics card which requires the Nvidia 304 driver.
This patch appears to fix the bug by providing the missing symbols,
could it be included
I agree with Ricardo, that this bug is critical. For the video card of
one of my systems, the nouveau driver doesn't work so it is practically
unusable without the proprietary NVIDIA driver.

This was working in 16.04, now since the upgrade to 16.10 it's broken.
Should be marked as Critical. If fix was already released by Debian team
should be easy and fast to get this corrected. Please, someone look into
this!

Not working for me either :(
Is this the same issue that got fixed in Debian (https://bugs.debian.org
/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=809324)? How can we get this to be patched in
Ubuntu? My machine is not very usable at the moment :(

I can confirm: the driver was working in 16.04, but stopped working in
16.10, with the same messages about mtrr_del/mtrr_add.
