Just another word of thanks.. I was having a similar problem-- I had installed the nvidia drivers with the nvidia installer, and had not (knowingly) installed any nvidia things in Kubuntu through adept. Everything would work fine until I rebooted, and then X wouldn't start as explained above. On your advice, I fired up adept, and filtered on "nvidia" and removed all the packages there. Voila, things are now working (after a reboot).
Funny how trying to make things easier (adept packages instead of Nvidia's installer) made things a lot harder for me.. I had worked on this problem for hours before finding this post.
Anyway, thanks again!
