I have installed the propriertary drivers for Nvidia via the additional drivers(jockey) tool. The opensource driver allowed me to use the system in Ubntu 3d. But performance was not very good. So I decided to give the proprietary driver a try, and installed it.
Now when I boot into Ubuntu 3d, i get a blacvk screen, if i keep pressing some keyboard keys, finally apport runs reporting that compiz has crashed(apport reporting mesage, has no window decorations), but I'm unable to click buttons on that.Now I ran apport from CLI 1 and generated the bug report. After restart from the terminal, I'm able to enter Ubuntu using the Unity 2d interface, which seems to be quite stable. As a matter of fact I'm reporting from firefox from within that session.
I had earlier reported a bug on the same issue, but with log files generated manually by me.
