What about xserver-xorg-video-nv? You said you were able to reproduce
the lockup with this driver in unstable? If you can't anymore with
xserver-xorg-video-nv in experimental (which needs xserver-xorg-core
from experimental too), it means something got fixed in the meantime.
And if this fix was in the server, the problem might disappear with
nvidia/fglrx then (once they get updated for the latest Xserver).
But, note that we won't be able to actually help you with fglrx or
nvidia since those are closed source and we have no way to debug in
them. Such problems should be reported to ATI or nVidia. We can only
help you about xserver-xorg-core and vesa and nv drivers...
