Over the weekend I got a notice from SETI that I needed to update to the latest Nvidia driver in order to keep processing work units. Dutifully I applied all updates, rebooted, then applied the new driver and rebooted. I had been running 340.101 per the "Drivers" utility. Now I leave at night and when I get back to the computers in the morning my video display will not restore. I can log in and when the session tries to restore itself it hangs not recognizing keyboard and one can only move the mouse, clicks go unrecognized.
This happens on 2 machines, a 6-core AMD and a 4-core I7. Both have the same Geoforce 630 card.
Interestingly, I have a dual core AMD which is currently running Linux Mint with the same video card running the same video driver also running Boinc and subscribed to the same projects. The video on it never locks up. This appears to be specific to Linux-Lite.
I cannot enter a bug report because the bug reporting interface seems broken.
