This backtrace in particular is from Nvidia driver version 260.19.44. The 
overall Xorg server failing to start was observed in 260.19.44, 280.13, and 
the 285.03 Beta. Apparently there is ABI breakage between the new Xorg 
packages and Nvidia proprietary "blah.run" drivers from the Nvidia web site.
