I'm a bit unsure it's needed to handle this bug though
What do you mean ? I just tried this one: deb http://snapshot-dev.debian.org/archive/debian/20091201T035027Z sid main which get this version: ii xorg 1:7.4+4 And it also freezed VT with both nv and nvidia. Enough for tonight. I'll try to narrow it down tomorrow.
