Problems with nvidia-drivers-4496, am I the only one ? :)



Hello,
I have one problem with nvidia 1.0.4496-2 on my sid
installation.
I tried 2.4.21 & 2.4.22-rc3 with the same results. My card is
(from lspci): nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400]
and I use the vesa fb (built-in kernel) for the console. 
My problem is, when I set vga=791, startx and then shut X down,
the console gets a blue-ish color & moves 1-2 chars to the left.
With vga=792 it doesn't get blue, but it moves 1-2 chars to
left, plus if I startx again and it get back to console, the
console font grows to ~100pt !
With vga=normal (aka no fb usage) everything works, but 
console is unusable on my 21" screen without fb :)
I don't have access to another box with 4496 to verify it (due
to the libc6-2.3.2 & nis problems :), so could anyone else pls
verify it before I send a bug-report to nvidia ?
I attach my XF86Config-4 (bzip2-ed) just in case...
