Why would 'no screens' happen?
Because it failed to initialise the driver.
NVdriver is very old, exactly which version of nvidia's driver are you running.
NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-3123 NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-3123
hm, I don't remember when they switched names, but 3123 is pretty old.

Automated updates are *not* a good thing. I'm guessing you got an old GLX driver but you still have the new kernel driver (named nvidia.o, not NVdriver)
And to correct this (?? go to nVidia and get later driver ??).
Either that, or if you want to keep your old driver, check why NVdriver won't load. perhaps "modprobe NVdriver" gives some interesting error messages. Perhaps you need to reinstall it. But I would go for the upgrade. The newer drivers are better
