Well I just tried an Xubuntu 13.04 'daily' build and, similarly to Ubuntu, I got a login prompt without X running and installed nvidia-310-dev, which works OK. It takes ages, compared to Studio, to boot from Grub to login though, so there's some magic under the hood of the Studio version I think. The glx-alternative-nvidia package I mentioned was a red herring. (Sorry if that doesn't translate well Ralph - a false lead. :)) It gets marked as broken in Xubuntu too. I'll try re-installing Studio, but only boot to a rescue prompt next. It's always so hard to get a run level with everything <X on *buntu.
