I can confirm this problem. Something in this morning's update (2/28) has outright killed video. I can boot in single mode, but any attempt to start x kills the entire video display. REIUSB still works to kill the system, but can't escape from X to a text display.
I also notice there appears to be a similar video problem on Precise. I don't have time to mess with it this morning; I am sending from Aptosid (which has the nouveau driver) so it might be a driver problem.

Partial solution:
I removed nvidia-current and installed the proprietary nvidia driver from their website:

seems to be working so far. Must have been the libc6 update that hosed the driver.We only have to look at ourselves to see how intelligent life might develop into something we wouldn't want to meet. -- Stephen Hawking
