Your nvidia package is out of date. Partial updates are not supported.
Comment by Rasmus Steinke (rasi) - Friday, 20 June 2014, 06:13 GMT
sorry, i meant nvidia-libgl, which seems to be the latest version.

Anyway, its fixed. seems nvidia needs "nomodeset" parameter explicitly set now. After setting this everything works again.

anyway, just realised this is not a testing issue anymore, since packages already moved...
