As far as I know, changing the sequence number of a script will not affect parallel booting. Did you use S7nvidia-glx or S07nvidia-glx? If the former, I suspect this caused the script to not run at all during boot. I suspect there is some race issue causing some but not all boots to fail. Btw, what is the name of the package providing /etc/init.d/nvidia-glx on your machine (dpkg -S /etc/init.d/nvidia-glx). > Now, this is not optimal - some update at some time in the future > will again reorder the scripts, and the problem is very likely to > repeat itself. Please try the adjusted header for nvidia-glx I posted earlier, and let me know if it helps.
