At last I installed a driver direct from nvidia's site, following their

It worked, and I got kde up and running, but then I tried as normal user, and 
got segmentation error.
Then I tried again as root and got the same error.

Now I an installing a 32 bit debian, and leaving this list for now.

I cannot get neither a K/ubuntu 64 -or 32 bits installed, it installs and then 
I get black screen, so it seemt as it only is debian which will install on my 
new laptop.

Can see, that I get the same X problem just now on 32 bits debian, so I will 
have to install a driver from nvidia, and then see.

Thanks for your help so far :-)  (I learned a lot)
