Thanks for your bug report. You've probably run into a serious bug in the nVidia backend. Could you please try the following at a command prompt and report what the output is exactly?
cd /usr/share/disper/src
python -c 'from nvidia import *; NVidiaControl()'

Thanks, that narrows the problem to the python xrandr bindings and/or ctypes. There may be a problem with your python ctypes installation. It looks like a bug #285411; could you please verify that it is the case by running the following:
grep ^__version__ /usr/share/pyshared/ctypes/__init__.py
strings /usr/lib/python*/lib-dynload/_ctypes.so | grep 1\.\0\.
if these numbers are different it is the culprit. |

As a workaround I'll create an XRandR fallback method that calls the xrandr binary instead of using ctypes bindings. |
