I did try the Nvidia 173 driver but it made no difference. I finally
decided to upgrade to 8.10 and that installed the 177 driver. This
finally solved my problem. Here is my new xorg.conf;
# xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

** Description changed:
During my upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy (with all current updates) I lost
output from the DVI on my Nvidia Geforce 6600. As soon as X starts, the
screen goes black. The system continues to boot normally. My VGA output
works normally. I am running the Nvidia accelerated driver. If I
disable the the accelerated driver I do get DVI output but an
unacceptable resolution that I can't seem to modify in any way.
Attached is my xorg.conf and xorg.0.log
+
+ This is now Solved for me by upgrade to 8.10
