I actually use the nvidia-driver. I had build it for the sarge-kernel
2.6.8. and was surprised, that after my new installation of the
2.6.16-kernel there automatically the module nvidiafb was used...
So, I think, that this module now is natively supported by newer kernels..?
My sources.list actually looks like this:

Actually I did not use dselect or aptitude this time, but only apt-get
with the -t stable, -t testing or -t unstable option. With this
method now all works fine. Aptitude did a mess last time with it's
update!
And to answer your last question:
Up to now I use the stable xserver-xfree86. I didn't try to upgrade to
Xorg, yet. Last time I said aptitude to install Xorg, it wanted to
uninstall almost all my gnome and kde packages and broke it all up.

I tried this one this afternoon, but it didn't work.
