Bug Description

I have been using nvidia proprietary driver 173. After today's security updates were installed, including a kernel update, I tried to rebuild 173. I couldn't get to a console after stopping gdm. Since I now have no way to stop the X server, I can't rebuild driver 173. I decided instead then to activate the "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (current version) [recommended]". That failed, hence this bug report.
