I get exactly the same error, using nvidia-96 driver and having gdm
theme installed (in my case it is xubuntu-gdm-theme). If you remove
*-gdm-theme package it starts working.

Confirming. Made all updates, installed xubuntu-gdm-theme back and the
bug is still here. Removed xubuntu-gdm-theme for now, waiting for patch.
Bug importance should be critical, such bugs just shouldn't get into
release, since for unexperienced users it just means that system is
unusable.

Well, it seems that system reboot was required. That's strange, since I
don't remembery any driver updates that required reboot. After I
reinstalled the driver and rebooted the system everything works great.
