That's exactly what happened to me when I updated my system. Debian has decided to force us to upgrade from XFree86 to XOrg, so even if you don't ask for a new X installation you'll get one anyway unless you manually put a hold on a few packages. Checking the /var/log/X* messages for a line with (EE) in it will show you that the new Xserver can't load the old nForce video driver. I went to the nvidia site and downloaded a program that will build the correct module, but it requires a properly-configured kernel source that matches the running kernel. I'll try doing that as soon as I find documentation explaining how linux boots on the XBox (it's neither lilo nor grub) so I can (hopefully) get it all running on 2.6.
