I'm guessing you are not using the Debian packaged nvidia driver, 
otherwise you wouldn't get such issues.

More generally, whenever you install things outside Debian's package 
management you have to be prepared to fix things on the next upgrade. 

This is not to say that Debian's package management is flawless, but 
must of the upgrade bugs are caught before the release (usually even 
before testing migration).

Kind regards,
Andrei
