I think the problem with mine was that I had agpgart built into the kernel. I changed that to module, recompiled the kernel and nvidia-kernel, add intel-agp to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel2.6 and my nvidia driver now works.
gohmdoree, I would suggest doing the same and also comment out the Options in the device section of your xorg.conf.
Hope that helps.

that didn't work.

does the fact that i'm using udev instead of devfs matteR?

i been just using the nv drivers, but i think will end up turning the box into a master node for a home brew cluster. thanks for the help. still at a loss what was up with it. been through the forums too many times with no success.

Fatal server error:
no screens found

screen 0 "screen0" 0 0

change to

screen0 = "screen0"

did u try changing that in xorg.conf? (think im invisible) that does cause no screens found error

then well try stuff in ur conf
