Firefox crashes after installing nvidia drivers
I'm working on Ubuntu Server 16.04. After installing the latest version of the drivers for my graphics card Firefox fails to open. On the uploaded images there is a screenshot of a terminal session with the error that i get while trying to start the browser and my driver version and graphics card info. Please advise.

In the address bar, type about:crashes<enter>. Note: If any reports do not have BP in front of the numbers/letters, click it to submit them.
The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.
Using your mouse, mark the most resent 7 - 10 crash reports, and copy them. Now go to the reply box below and paste them in.
(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)
My problem is that Firefox itself doesn't start so i wouldn't be able to access the address bar unless I uninstalled the graphics card driver which I don't really want to do at the moment. Is there a way to get the crash reports by using the command line?
I'm sorry about the screenshots but I don't have direct access to the server as i'm connecting to it via rdp.
I decided to try Chromium instead and that seems to be working. Thank you for your help though.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).
Is the problem still there?
If you can't get Firefox to open, you will have to do this the hard way. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/mozillacrashreporter Open the file browser / explorer on your computer. Note: You may have to enable Show Hidden Folders / Files. Enter this in the address bar;
