Did you also update the Nvidia driver when you updated the system? Maybe
the new Nvidia driver does not support your graphic board.
I have a GeForce GT 520 box where I am stuck with nvidia-drivers-295.20
because newer drivers segfault (even though officially they should
support the GT520).

The official stable driver (certified by nvidia) for your card is the same one
as for mine: 310.32
http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-amd64-310.32-driver.html
Just unmask it and use it, it is working on my system OK with kernel 3.1.6 but, it will work with 3.8 as well (as just reported by Randolph Maaßen)
