I found my problem. After the upgrade my two graphics cards were not detected properly and the xorg.conf file did not include a BusID entry in the Devices section. After performing an "lspci | grep VGA" and adding the appropriate PCI bus ID into the configuration file, my XServer now starts and I can load the proprietary nVidia drivers (v177). The format for the xorg.conf file is BusID "XX:YY:ZZ".

I am not sure if this specific issues should be transferred to another issue or not. This is more of an XServer configuration issue than a nVidia driver problem. However, I did want to post my solution just in case anyone else had a similar problem.
