Public bug reported:

Latest X server only works with the nvidia driver if the ignoreABI is
turned on in the xorg configuration file. Unfortunately this option  is
not set by the nvidia-xconfig script.

The auto generated xorg file should have something like this:

Section "ServerFlags"
        Option                  "ignoreABI" "on"
EndSection
