Workaround? Ok I had the same exact problem here on a fresh 9.04 64bit install running on a p4 quad with a geforce 8800 GT. I went to the Synaptic Package Manager, found the nVidia 180 driver package, marked it for install, applied.... No errors at all in the console. Restarted and X loaded fine, Gnome has all of its shiney effects enabled, the graphics are great. So far so good. No errors, no corruption, no weird behavior at all. :)
