We should talk to upstream about that. This bug has been here for so long...
We need to open a bug report at bugzilla.freedesktop.org product Xorg
component Driver/NV and post your config and the log with the latest
release, i.e. NV 2.1.6 currently in unstable. Can you do that? I guess
you're
running testing, right? If so, I'll rebuild a driver for you.
