Dell 5510 - latest update with Nvidia 367.57 is broken - cannot login after entering password
Received the latest update that had the Nvidia drivers 367.57 and after that it's impossible to enter Unity.
Entering the password gives a black screen and returns to login screen.
Reverted to a previous backup using timeshift,
Is this happening only to me?
Any suggestions?

Hi,
I'm having the exact same problem, on the same laptop. Did you find a fix? Jared, Barton? I can't use my computer!
Please help.
Thanks,
Santiago.

No solution so far.
I was lucky to be using TimeShift. With it I easily restored to a previous restore point.
Will try again in a few days.
In the meantime I'm unchecking NVidia when updating Ubuntu.
