This could be a race condition but nothing SSD - specific. I was able to
reproduce this reliably on my brand new Lenovo W510 - laptop.
Just now I was able work around the problem by removing
/etc/X11/xorg.conf, restarting, and rerunning 'sudo nvidia-xconfig'.
This after I had installed latest drivers from
ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates.
I've got:
nvidia-current:
Installed: 270.29-0ubuntu1~maverick~xup2

I can provide /var/log/Xorg.0.log, /var/log/syslog and .xsession-errors
if the problem re-occurs.
