Configurando nvidia-installer-cleanup (20141201+1) ...

Welcome to the NVIDIA Software Installer for Unix/Linux


If you plan to no longer use the NVIDIA driver, you should make sure that no X
screens are
configured to use the NVIDIA X driver in your X configuration file. If you used
nvidia-xconfig to
configure X, it may have created a backup of your original configuration. Would
you like to run
`nvidia-xconfig --restore-original-backup` to attempt restoration of the
original X configuration
file?
  [default: (N)o]:


Enter
Y
yes
s
si
N
n
no
NO

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

no matter how you answer, not continuous working

Dear Maintainers,

nvidia-installer --uninstall invocation in 
nvidia-installer-cleanup.postinst
script tries to interact with the user by means of printf/scanf.
This hangs the postinstall script. We need to invoke nvidia-installer
with zero user interaction.

please find enclosed my suggestion to fix the issue:
