Same problem for me.

I wonder if "normal" people could have found the "dlopen: /usr/lib/xorg/extra-modules/nvidia_drv.so: undefined symbol: miEmptyData" source of their problem. Because starting 10.10 on a black&white console is far from sexy (not mentioning irritating). Having to dig the logs is something my mother wouldn't have been able to.

A warning prior upgrade would have been nice...
