You should upgrade to 2.6.32-5-amd64.  Hopefully that is enough to fix
the problem.

Here's your first problem, the new default driver for your card does not
work due to lack of kernel support.  Upgrading the kernel will fix that.

That is the second problem, instead of falling back to the nv driver the
X server uses the vesa driver which is definitely not what you want.
This seems to be a bug in the xserver-xorg-core package.
