DetailsDescription: Arch won't start after xorg 1.11.1-2 update, I don't know if that's due to the nvidia-173xx-lts driver or to the kernel not supporting it. It stucks before KDM loading with a black screen and an underscore blinking. I had to chroot and by hand cli restore xorg previous version and its dependencies plus ignoring them in pacman.conf. Please move this thread to nvidia-lts if it's not the kernel. A kiss distro shouldn't lack on a long therm support kernel for an end-user it might take a fresh installation to solve this problem even thought it's all well documented. This isn't a bunch of insults to your job but criticism to perfect it. So, keep up the good job mate :D

nvidia-173xx doesn't have xorg-server 1.11 support. it doesn't have any connection with the kernel

Does it work with nouveau and the 3.0 kernel?
