Sorry, I moved from testing to unstable about a fortnight ago. I'm
running stock kernel 2.6.8-1-686 which I suspect is the problem given
that it's in console and X. The video card uses the nv driver in X.
No system backups ( I do /home regularly which is on a different
physical drive) due to a lack of storage space. I can usually fix things
up with a little help from knoppix if nescessary.
