Bug Description
2015-06-16 TJ:
I've published a possibly fixed package for Trusty to my PPA at:
https:/
Please test and report back if that fixes the issue. If it does I can attach the fixed branch to bug #1431753 where the other release fixes are being tracked.

This seems to fix it (at least for one version upgrade) for many people
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-331
after that...
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-331-uvm
(some users may be on the versions of these packages suffixed with -updates )
Update 2015-05-23:
As of the recent kernel update (3.13.0-53), the above two commands followed by a reboot may not fix it. Instead:
$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-331 nvidia-331-uvm
followed by a reboot.

Actually bug 1398212 is the original bug you're experiencing. But bug 1431753 describes the root cause of that bug and others, and is where the actual fixing is happening.
