I had a power outage while running a update and now my system will not update and cannot load nvidia module. I have tried the --configure -a option with no luck. Here are my errors

sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-185

reboot and run Hardware Drivers again to re-install your gfx card...

I think apt-get is broken. This is the error i get if i try to install or remove anything.
