After the installation had finished, Xorg wouldn't start. I later found out that this was because the installation routine had commented out the nvidia display driver I used in the xorg.conf: Section "Device" Identifier "nvidia" # Driver "nvidia" BusID "PCI:10@0:0:0" Option "ConstrainCursor" "off" EndSection As the installtion routine backuped my xorg.conf I could verify that the line hadn't been commented out before upgrading. Removing the "#" solved the problem.
