I've just installed Linux Mint 16 Cinnamon RC (64-bit) and all was fine. However, it was rendering in software mode, so I went to the device drivers option in the System Settings and changed it from the nouveau driver to the nVidia 319 driver which was highlighted as recommended. I then clicked apply. After a short while this finished. I logged out, but when trying to log back in again, I get the message:
If I select Yes, this repeats.Do you want to restart Cinnamon?
Cinnamon just crashed. You are currently running in Fallback Mode.
No / Yes
The syslog shows:

Could anyone advise as to what I can do to resolve this? If there's additional output needed to diagnose, let me know and I'll provide it.
Thanks
