The nvidia .run installer seems to have problems compiling the kernel module against Debian kernel header packages by making assumptions about the compiler and source layout instead of using Kbuild to figure this out ... >> The directory /usr/src/linux-headers-3.12-1-amd64 exists! >> But only with 1,9 MB content? There is also /usr/src/linux-headers-3.12-1-common ... containing the source files shared between all kernel flavors (there is only one flavor for amd64 but several e.g. for i386). But this is not going to fix your problem. There is something X-related broken as you could see in the failing vesa test. Maybe some outdated library, forgotten file or symlink somewhere or a non-default configuration setting somewhere. You should really try to do a clean minimal jessie install on a separate disk, ensure X is working properly, install the same package set as you have on the "grown" system, ensure X is still working, and compare the two installations. BTW, in your wheezy installation, which driver and kernel version were you using? Did you test with the nvidia driver from wheezy-backports? (It currently has 319.72 and will be upgraded early next week once 382.82 reaches testing.)
