Hi Dario and Marc,

the fact that you guys both are running into this and that you both
run the closed source nvidia driver (not the nouveau thing that just
went upstream, right?) is suspicious and since closed source drivers
are known to break the kernel, I'd suggest you both give a kernel a try
without those closed source drivers, before doing anything else.

When testing this, please make sure the nvidia kernel module is removed
so that it doesn't get loaded at all and not simply blacklisting it.

Thanks,
Boris.
