I updated 'nvidia', but now when it starts it complains of being unable
to allocate DMA memory and aborts.
My Xorg.0.log is here: http://sprunge.us/GOLS
As the log says, xorg hasn't found any screens.
Are you using any configuration?
If yes, post it too.
Also try, temporarily disabling custom configuration if it exists. I
don't have an nvidia card, so I don't know if it needs any custom
config, etc.
You can autogenerate a configuration file using Xorg -configure as root.
