Have you tried Maxime Henrion's nvidia patches? http://mu.org/~mux/patches/nvidia.patch The original code from nvidia will no longer run on -CURRENT without them. I got tired of updating the driver so I just went back to using the nv module from XFree which works just fine for my non-accelerated purposes. I did have to remove every trace of the nvidia code with its headers and libraries and then recompile XFree before I could get the nv module to work, however.
