xorg - nv driver



Hi,

I have problems running xorg's nv driver with my nvidia card. The xserver displays colored scrumbled pixels and crashes after some keyboard input (e.g. after pressing Ctrl + Alt + F1). Currently, I am using the vesa driver, which is quite uncomfortable. What am I
doing wrong? I would be grateful for any hints.
