Chag's fix worked perfectly for me!  I had the exact same problem and
setup

* nvidia card with dual monitor, with one monitor rotated
* upgraded to Ubuntu Maverick
* X started up fine, but when I tried to move any window, the whole X server 
would segfault

I rebuild xserver-xorg-core according to instructions in comment #91
(which I will call the "SHAZAM fix"), and everything's back to normal.

I did try for several hours to get XRandR to work, and failed with every
combination.  It just seems impossible to get it to rotate a single
monitor, and have a unified X screen for the whole desktop (i.e. be able
to drag windows between monitors).  Does anyone know *why* Xinerama is
deprecated, since it seems to be the only solution for several uncommon-
but-useful desktop setups?
