Try to load "nv" driver and see what happens.
............and that is what i did. kaffeine is still giving trouble
with mpeg4-files&&. so i loaded again the intel-driver. this driver or
chip (x4500) is definitely of better quality than the combination
geforce 9400& and the nv-driver. my conclusion: no hardware-problem,
just a disastrous by-effect of the latest nvidia-driver from their site
on the hardware-combination (?)of my machine.
Yes, quite posible.
so be it till another nvidia-driver will come up or another pci-express
card.
thank you very much, you all have illuminated me!
Just another thing to try.
Issue "lspci | grep VGA" and put here the output.
If your nvidia card is indeed 9400 GT you can try the nvidia driver
available within Debian repositories. I am using that with my old
nvidia 7600 GS and have no problems at all.
In fact, I've also got them installed for my Quadro NVS 440:
***
sm01@stt008:~$ dpkg -l | grep nvidia
ii nvidia-glx 173.14.09-5 NVIDIA binary Xorg driver
ii nvidia-kernel-2.6.26-2-amd64 173.14.09+3+lenny1 NVIDIA binary kernel module for Linux 2.6.26
ii nvidia-kernel-common 20080825+1 NVIDIA binary kernel module common files

I followed the steps provided at Debian wiki (pre-built modules):
