Bug Description

The login goes in a loop. This happened after I had stopped the X server to install Nvidia Cuda Drivers.

I tried reinstalling the gnome settings , xorg and some other fixes which were commonly available on the internet for the problem of login going in a loop.

I think the problem is in the xserver config file. The Xorg.o.log says the following errors

1) KMS not enabled.
2) Failed to initialize GLX extension ( Comapatible NVIDIA X driver not found )
