I'm no Debian expert.  I don't know why things don't work for you.  I
am running xfree86 4.3.0-7 at home with the 5336 Nvidia driver and a
Quadro2 card and it's working fine.  We also have a machine here at
work with a Quadro4 and the 5336 driver running Debian/unstable and it
also works.

I haven't noticed any recent problems with Debian/testing or
Debian/unstable (apart from the usual linuxthreads vs. NPTL issues).
I don't use KDE though.
