Thanks. That's very interesting. I've only ever seen Ubuntu get stuck on
that purple screen when there was a graphics driver bug (it was the
VMware driver last time - bug 1832138). So that makes me think there's a
problem with the nvidia-340 driver, OR it could mean some fallback
codepath in mutter to support old drivers is buggy.

The bad news is I don't think I can test the nvidia-340 driver anymore
because the only Nvidia cards new enough to support my monitors are too
new for that driver :S


** Summary changed:

- Ubuntu 20.04 not booting with NVidia proprietary drivers (follow-up from bug 
1889377)
+ Booting Ubuntu with Nvidia-340 gets stuck on a plain purple screen

** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New
