I did this, and when I rebooted I was in the Linux console instead of Light DM 
(which is my display manager). Hitting ctrl-alt-F7 to go to the X screen did 
not show me the LDM login screen, or any other X screen, but instead another 
non-graphical screen.

I reinstalled xserver-xorg-video-nouveau from the console, and (fortunately) 
when I rebooted LDM came up as usual and I was able to log in as I normally 
do. Obviously, the original issue still exists, but at least I got a graphical 
display back.
