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.

Thanks.
