Eu executei uma atualização e um upgrade após a reinicialização. Quando fiz isso, percebi que o driver nvidia não está mais lá.
Já experimentei tudo o que sei:
sudo apt-get --reinstall nvidia-current-update
para
sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
em seguida, reinstalado em vão, como eu continuo recebendo o erro
sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
aqui está minha sources.list:
