FYI, after a kernel upgrade the NVIDIA driver was unusable again. This time was because of the DKMS mechanism which, for whatever reason I didn't investigate yet (could it be because of the apt-pinning??), didn't success to build and install the nvidia_304.ko module for the new kernel.

If that happens to you, the solution is to run these commands:
 dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-304
 service lightdm restart (no need to reboot)
