Oh, then upgrading or downgrading xserver-xorg-video-nv doesn't matter
since this driver isn't used at all.

Is there a way you try without the proprietary nvidia driver? I'd like
to be sure it's not caused by it. Changing nvidia into nv in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf (and maybe removing a couple non-trivial option)
should do the trick.
