I have tried Aaron's patches myself and they do make the "Failed to claim DRM device." error messages in /var/log/Xorg.0.log disappear and the log looks like the NVIDIA driver is working fine, but I still boot to a black screen. So there is either another problem, or those patches don't quite fix

It looks like we are all having the same issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1449560 ...and it would make sense if the heart of the problem lies with Xorg server, seeing as people with NVIDIA and AMD ATI cards are both experiencing the same issue. -- Yo

I have this problem too and it's driving me nuts. I see other bug reports (eg. #809500) which say that selecting and then deselecting "show menubar" hides the menu at the top of the screen for gnome terminal, thus making these key combinations work, but if that ever worked before it doesn't for me
