Title:
  nvidia-319 black screen after upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-319 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I was on Ubuntu 13.04, just changed from nvidia-current to nvidia-319
  a few days ago.

  Today, I decided to upgrade to 13.10, after reboot, 
  1. The login screen was in low resolution.
  2. Then right after login, an error dialog pop-up saying detected system problem, asking me whether to report the problem. 
  3. Further to proceed, then black screen with only mouse pointer freely to move.
  4. Switched to command terminal tty1 (ctrl + alt + F1), logged in and used apt-get to remove nvidia-319 and re-install nvidia-current & nvidia-settings.
  5. Rebooted and seems fine, the "Report System Problem" dialog pop-up again and now being directed to here to report the problem.
