I am experiencing what is probably the same problem. nvidia-glx-config
enable made the following changes:

This shows the same bus ID change that others have mentioned, but also shows a
change to the monitor config (a bit scary this should physically damage old
monitors) and to the modes (a big problem on a wide screen laptop).
I am using Edgy (updated today) i386 on a Compaq R3000z.
