however, if i see the splash screen (crisp and clear, mind you) doesn't that mean that the problem is not graphics related?

upon starting X with the command startx the screen goes black, then the
Nvidia splash shows up for half a second, and then i'm back at the
prompt with the following output:
You may have better results going to a nvidia support forum for help with their binary driver.
Does it work the open source XFree86 'nv' driver? (You will need to disable the nvidia 'glx' extension). If do not need fast OpenGL (i.e. don't play games) this should work well enough for you.
