** Description changed:

  Problem:
  After updating the alpha version (which worked OK) to beta version of Lubuntu 
14.10  I no longer could get the desktop interface, only a blank screen 
appeared after a second of flashing of Lubuntu 14.10 in the centre of the 
screen.
  My desktop (Acer Aspire T-180 uses a Geoforce 6100 nForce 405 graphic card.
  The default nouveau driver does provide a GUI but rapidly results in screen 
freeze, as happened  with the earlier versions of Lubuntu, and is therefore of 
no use.
  The older NVIDIA-173 on the list also gives screen freezes.
  
  In another partition on the same device, Lubuntu 14.04 LTS operates some
- months already without any flaws with driver nvidia-301.117
+ months already without any flaws with driver nvidia-304.117
  
  From the blank screen after booting on nvidia-304.123 ,  alt-F2 shows
  the option to login in terminal mode and carry out update/upgrade. The
  system looks normal except for the absence of the GUI.
  
  My conclusions:
  (a) the absence of GUI appears to be caused by the driver nvidia-304.123
  (b) none of the recommended video drivers on the list for Lubuntu 14.10 beta 
can be used on this Geforce 6100 card.
