Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner.
Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial) reached end-of-standard-support on April 29, 2021. I'm setting the status of this bug to 'Incomplete' as it's not seen any activity for some time. If this is still an issue when using a currently maintained release of Ubuntu then please let us know which one(s) otherwise this bug report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time. ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1694109 Title: X server freezes with all NVIDIA open source driver releases (340.102, 375.66, 381.22) Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hello, I have Dell XPX L502X with Nvidia GT 540M card i.e. 6 years old hardware whose driver is still not working, this is amazing :( The X server freezes with all NVIDIA open source driver releases (340.102, 375.66, 381.22). This report is for NVIDIA driver version 340.102. X Server freezes at any time keyboard and mouse hangs and last resort used to be to power down with power key forcefully which may destroy HDD also :( I even tried proprietary NVIDIA drivers also but they had shown the same behaviour. Without the NVIDIA drivers in place I can't use CUDA toolkit. Please let me know if someone need any further info apart from attached file.
