[Bug 1374871] Re: upgrade from 0.2.91.6 to 0.2.91.7 breaks my X.org (nvidia)

 

I've recently upgraded my ubuntu to 14.10 and problem also occurred.

I've removed bumblebee and primus (just remove not purge) and it didn't help. 
Downgrading ubuntu-drivers-common to 0.2.91.4 also failed. 

But I've found out that my X.org is complaining about missing nvidia
module, and indeed there was no such file in
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers. Re-installing nvidia-331 did not helped.
So I simply copied nvidia_drv.so to drivers and libglx* to /usr/lib and
it now works! Although it lacks hardware acceleration but I'm able to
finish my work for now.

Maybe somebody will guide me - which package is responsible for linking
appropriate nvidia_drv.so to X.org modules?
