I've never seen that before, and I probably can't help. I have a few
questions, though.

1. At what point are your consoles messed up? Do they look weird right after
the nvidia module loads, or only after you start X and switch back to a
console?

2. Are you using a framebuffer console or plain old text-only?

3. Do these problems go away (at least temporarily) when you turn your
machine completely off and then on again?
