Title:
  nvidia driver crashes after kernel upgrade

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  My two older Zotacs use the NV 340.108 driver and both are having the
  same issue. After the latest dist-upgrade they boot fine but don't
  display video, just a blank black screen with a randomly blinking
  cursor. They're headless but I got into both with ssh in order to
  uninstall the NV driver and now both boot normally but just use the
  Nuveau default driver. Unfortunately I can't use either computer like
  this (no NV driver). Afterward, I tried installing the NV driver with
  Software-Updater but then received this warning after a few minutes:

  Error while applying changes
  pk-client-error-quark: Error while installing package: installed nvidia-340 package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 10(313)
  OK
