Geee, today the problem reoccured, without compiz being installed anymore (sorry for the accusation). Additional observations: The last messsage printed is about starting the cups deamon, after that the screen goes black (changes from text to graphics mode?) and also the harddisk rattle completely stops. Ctrl-Alt-Fx or Ctrl-Alt-Backspace has no effect. I uninstalled the nvidia driver end ended up wioth a totally unstable flickering text prompt so I reinstalled the driver again and got back to the "black mode". I then tried "dpkg-reconfigure -p high xserver-xorg" to try to reset the x server from the recovery prompt and then it was possible to reboot into normal/GUI mode again. If anybody knows what package that should have the blame, feel free to reassign it.
