If you need X only for testing, use a simpler driver:
xf86-video-vesa
xf86-video-nv
xf86-video-nouveau (probably won't work with an older kernel)
Thanks,
The nv module works fine. The only issue is that X will not autoconfigure to
use it, so you must create a minimal xorg.conf telling X to use the nv driver.
Then it works like a champ. Thankfully, the only thing required was to:
cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nvida
edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change Driver "nvidia" to Driver "nv" and remove
any nvidia specific options like "option coolbits = 1". The restarting kdm did
the trick.
