The instructions for upgrade note that removing third-party software (including software from Debian testing or sid) should be uninstalled, which would include the proprietary nvidia driver. I know I've installed some unofficial backport packages that may cause this problem, and I plan on taking an inventory, uninstalling or downgrading, then reinstalling after the upgrade (if necessary).
