Thanks :-)
Some comments on the log...
***
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions//libglx.so
(II) Module glx: vendor="NVIDIA Corporation"
compiled for 4.0.2, module version = 1.0.0
Module class: X.Org Server Extension
(II) NVIDIA GLX Module 173.14.09 Thu Jun 5 00:07:40 PDT 2008
(II) Loading extension GLX

It seems loading the GLX module using some part of the nvidia closed
drivers... how is that possible? :-?
Now look mine:
***
(II) LoadModule: "glx"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions//libglx.so
(II) Module glx: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
compiled for 1.4.2, module version = 1.0.0
ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.3
(==) AIGLX enabled
(II) Loading extension GLX
***
Here is loading the Xorg stock GLX extension.
...
And there is something more in your log it caught my attention:
***
(II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0
(--) Assigning device section with no busID to primary device
(--) Chipset Unknown NVIDIA chip found
***
And now compare to mine:
***
(II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0
(--) Assigning device section with no busID to primary device
(--) Chipset Quadro FX 1500 found
***
I still don't see why are you so reluctant to "test" the closed source
driver. Just to test, for seeing how it goes and if it solves nothing
then at least you can decide the next step with confidence :-)
You said your card was "unsupported" and you maybe right.
- Lenny ships "nvidia-glx" 173.14.09 and your card is not listed:
http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/173.14.09/README/appendix-a.html
- But Squeeze ships "nvidia-glx" 195.36.31 and your card appears there:
http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/195.36.31/README/supportedchips.html
So you can test the closed driver in squeeze and see how it goes. If all
is fine you can then install the latest driver available from nvidia site
in lenny (it will require driver compilation).
