There is a problem with the NVidia packages and the xorg package of the newest Ubuntu releases.
See e.g. a comment in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-tegra3/+publishinghistory

"Deleted on 2014-02-05 by S. B.
doesn't work with new xorg abis",

The last working combination for me was Ubuntu Saucy with nvidia-tegra 16.3-0ubuntu2 and xserver-xorg-core 2:1.14.6-0ubuntu1

Ok, the one thing to do is WAIT...
I don't know it is a bug or not.
