same problem.
this is because someone (Timo Aaltonen < <email address hidden>>) at (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg)
make this -
 * xserver-xorg: Bump the depends on xserver-xorg-core, and require
    xserver-xorg-video-5, xserver-xorg-input-4.

xserver-xorg-video-4 --> xserver-xorg-video-5

xserver-xorg-video-4 now in conflict list.

nvidia-glx-177 (-180 for me) provides xserver-xorg-video-4 (not xserver-xorg-video-5) ..
and update to new xorg minor/minor/minor build ... break graphics .. nvidia-glx cannon be installed ;(

confused about Timo Aaltonen ... - "think before do anything!"
