[Bug 929384] Re: nvidia drivers broken by the recent libc update on i386 arch

[Ivo Anjo]

I'm sorry if this is unrelated, but I used synaptic to upgrade my system today, and after reboot the nvidia binary driver was gone and I was running nouveau. Is this expected? I didn't see anything about nvidia-current being removed.
(I'm running a 64-bit system.)

Title:
  nvidia drivers broken by the recent libc update on i386 arch

Status in “eglibc” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in “glibc” package in Fedora:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  Automatically reported crash while logging in after boot, running
  Precise beta with continuous updates.

  Login was also very slow, and Unity doesn't seem to have appeared:
  there is no launcher panel or menu bar, non-maximized windows have
  their menus inside the window, and maximized windows have their menu
  bar at the top but without Ubuntu logo on the left.  There are no
  indicators, clock, and so on.

  I tried this with both “Ubuntu” and “Ubuntu 2D” logins; same result.
  I think I'm normally on Unity 2D (from PPA) but my session option in
  the login screen does show “Ubuntu” by default.
