This may be due to an existing /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. For me if I
removed nvidia-96 and rebooted, I only got a black screen. I had to ssh
into the machine and mv it and then restart gdm. The nouveau driver
wouldn't kick in until I did. My xorg.conf was as mentioned in comment #2.

Try the noveau driver with no xorg.conf (after purging nvidia*) & see if
you still get the same problem.
