Have an interesting update on this problem:

When I run Google Chrome and go to 'chrome://gpu-interals' the X Server
would crash and this didn't seem to be dependent on the Xorg Core Server
version.  I installed my Nvidia divers directly from the Nvidia
binaries.  The Nvidia*304.32.sh.run drivers have the ability to do a
sanity check run by the following...just go to TTY1...

'sudo lightdm service stop'
'NVIDIA*304.32.sh.run --sanity"

Apparently the Xorg Core Server upgrade alters a single Xorg file and
this corrupts the Nvidia installation and the Nvidia installer will
recommend a reinstallation of the drivers.  Unfortunately I will have
run the whole upgrade, check re-install process and write the file name
down...

Will try this with the new 304.37 drivers...
