I had the same problem when I've moved to the Nvidia open driver and
spend some time to understand the problem.

More exactly the problem come from the -support packages
nvidia-kernel-support and nvidia-open-kernel-support

Both try to modprobe is own kernel module and this freeze the computer.

To fix this issue nvidia-open-kernel-support should Conflicts with 
nvidia-open-kernel-support
