Hi Bruno,
got the same problem a few days ago. My machine freezes when starting kdm.
After booting with Knoppix and disabling nvidia-modul, I changed
displaymanager to xdm. After that a lot of crashes where reported, while
starting kde. So I've recompiled the new nvidia-package, which came while
dist-upgrade, and all is fine again. 
Problem seems to be with new nvidia-package.


HTH
