As you might know the 9600 GT is not supported in Hardy:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24/+bug/216636

So I tried all available options I found on the net. I can't remember if
I installed first the nvidia-glx-new and later the nvidia-glx or vica
versa.

Anyway both scenario's are known to have issues uninstalling under certain 
circumstances:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24/+bug/36625

This fix worked for me:
 > sudo mkdir /usr/lib32
 > sudo touch /usr/lib32/libGL.so.1
After this, everything could be uninstalled and the other installed.
And finally:
 > sudo rm /usr/lib32/*
 > sudo rmdir /usr/lib32

All options left me with a black screen or the 800x600 resolution.  I
even tried to compile a new kernel with the beta 177.13 driver.

Since I have run out of options, I hope you, or somebody else, can help
me find a solution.

Thanks

B.t.w. the logs I send you are reproduced on a fresh installed Hardy-64.
