Xorg still works with the nv driver. I did notice _very_ interesting lines in dmesg when using the nvidia driver:
[ 43.196323] nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel.

It seems like nvidia-glx-new is installed, but it isn't! Did somebody miss-package nvidia-glx with the nvidia-glx-new drivers? nvidia-glx should have the 1.0-96xx drivers not the 100.14.11 drivers!
