Thanks for the quick reply,

I tried some more and found out that using the nvidia-glx-legacy driver
(7184), x starts, altough without glx support (glxgears segfaults). I
still have the same problems (black screen after x start) with the
nvidia-glx driver (9631).

The dpkg command you requested for both the 9631 and 9755 driver:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/root/XLogs$ cat dpkg.log-9631 
ii  nvidia-glx                  1.0.9631+2.6.20.5-15.20 NVIDIA binary XFree86 
4.x/X.Org driver
ii  nvidia-kernel-common        20051028+1ubuntu7       NVIDIA binary kernel 
module common files
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/root/XLogs$ cat dpkg.log-9755 
ii  nvidia-glx-legacy           1.0.7184+2.6.20.5-15.20 NVIDIA binary XFree86 
4.x/X.Org 'legacy' dri
ii  nvidia-kernel-common        20051028+1ubuntu7       NVIDIA binary kernel 
module common files

I used the same Xorg.conf for both configurations, it is attached to
this comment.


On a side notice, switching between nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-legacy using apt 
didn't "just work". I had to rmmod nvidia; insmod 
/lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/volatile/nvidia[_legacy].ko because otherwise 
the x server gave incompatible driver errors or just told me it couldn't 
install the nvidia driver.
