[SOLVED] Crash on Linux after updating Nvidia Drivers on Ubuntu 16.10

Troubleshooting General Help

Hey Guys,
Today I thought I could try the new nvidia update since I thought the old driver problem is solved by now, however it looks like there is yet another problem:

SCHWERWIEGEND: Failed to create display
org.lwjgl.LWJGLException: X Error - disp: 0x7f5b8c02def0 serial: 87 error: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) request_code: 154 minor_code: 24

        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:748)

Others blame that on lwjgl and suggest updating to master.
From here it looks like that won’t happen anymore.

This is quite a problem for us, since iirc lwjgl3 is also broken

Edit: When trying lwjgl3, I get this:

I don’t know if this is related to the bug, or rather our old problem with “no awt window before the context has been initialized”…

Edit: glxgears also fails with

X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  154 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  3 (X_GLXCreateContext)
  Value in failed request:  0x0
  Serial number of failed request:  27
  Current serial number in output stream:  28

So it seems Nvidia just messed it up.

I could never imagine that possible however it seems a reboot solved it.
lwjgl3 doesn’t work though, it says BadPicture.
