I debugged the 3.13 kernel on my Precise install and the problem turned
out to an incomplete 3.13 patch fodr the proprietary nvidia driver from
the nvidia forums. I'll have another try with the live usb stick once
official nvidia driver support appears.

(The kernel code had  retired a macro and replaced with another (DEVICE_ACPI_HANDLE -> ACPI_HANDLE) and
the Nvidia driver just skipped the ACPI calls in in absence of the old macro, due to #ifdef checks.)
