Seems like I saw this problem before with Core-2. Haven't used "system-config-display" since but manually edit the xorg.conf. We also use the 'nvidia' driver working with Core-3 in a 3-headed configuration. After you rebooted and X failed, was the xorg.conf trying to use the 'nvidia' driver and not the 'nv' driver? Was the nvidia driver loaded (lsmod).
