Older boot attempts in the syslog file indicate to my limited view the Nvidia driver has no authority to access it's own files after kernel update an hour and a half ago. The root cause.. not really Xorg, ...go figure. Before the update I was thinking.. should I switch to nouveau for the update. Nahhh they fixed that nvidia driver kernel bug. It actually was for a while. Ubuntu 14.04 Nvidia GTX 460, old iron. ASRock Fata1ity amd mobo, this also used to happen on my gigabyte board over the last year and a half. email me if you didn't get the syslog.
