It seems like the kernel and the nvidia driver weren't built using the
same compiler.
Please, either ssh into your machine, or press CTRL+ALT+F2 and do the
following:
1) Make sure security updates are enabled, and update your system ("apt-
cache policy gcc-5" should report 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.9 on Xenial)
2) Make sure no driver from NVIDIA's website is installed. If it is,
please uninstall it first.
3) When gcc-5 is updated, re-install the nvidia package from the archive:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-384 (or nvidia-340)
4) Restart your computer.
