Possibly relevant: this machine had ocl-icd-libopencl1 installed, and nvidia-319 Conflicts: with that. If that is the problem, removing libopencl1 from nvidia-319 (as already proposed to fix bug 1174205) would also fix this bug.

The text tty (Ctrl+Alt+F1) was functional, but trying to start any graphical applications from it failed with "cannot open display". Checking /var/log/Xorg.0.log from there found a "failed to load NVIDIA kernel module" error. dpkg -l *nvidia* listed nvidia-310 as installed and nvidia-304 as removed-conffiles remaining. After purging all of those (sudo apt-get purge <package(s)>), the system would start normally on Nouveau, but would then hang (mouse pointer movable but other screen contents frozen) after a minute or two. Reinstalling compiz didn't help. I then enabled the nvidia 319 driver from System Settings > Software & Updates > Additional Drivers, and the system then worked. This dialog now listed only 304 and 319, suggesting it is known that nvidia-310 doesn't work in 13.10, and the nvidia-310 description now says it is a transitional package to nvidia-319...but this evidently hadn't worked (nvidia-319 had not been auto-installed. From upgrade apt.log: Installing nvidia-319 as Depends of nvidia-310 Installing nvidia-settings-319 as Recommends of nvidia-319 Installing libvdpau1 as Depends of nvidia-settings-319 nvidia-319:amd64 Recommends on nvidia-persistenced [ amd64 ] < none > ( none ) can't be satisfied!
