Thanks, Bob. Regretfully, that didn't do it for me, but I'm not sure if
my problem was nvidia-related.
I let Synaptic do the update (90+ packages!), but it errored out with
problems updating python packages.
I rebooted normally, and it hung after starting cupsd. A repeat did the
same.
I rebooted with recovery console and renamed xorg.conf. When I tried to
remove nvidia-current, I got all these python errors which couldn't be
fixed. I didn't see a message that indicated the removal worked.
I tried to install nouveau, but got the message the most recent version
was already installed.
Rebooting hangs at the same place as after the update.
I'll try a console upgrade after there's a chance the video is all
compatible. Is "apt-get upgrade" or "apt-get dist-upgrade" the right choice?

Lane, latest update of X11-xkb-utils solved this. But of course, it
would be no help if one cannot boot in, even to the recovery console, to
do the upgrade. So, if you are still having the same problem booting up,
append "nouveau.modeset=0" to the linux line at grub and boot up to do
the upgrade.
Did not reply earlier as there were many replies and I thought there
would at least be an answer and it would be impertinent of me to jump in.
Good luck - Goh Lip
