Recently upgraded my Geforce2 Ti 200 to a Geforce 6800 Ultra. The hardware change was painless and the system booted straight into X.
However, that was using the nvidia-71xx/nvidia-71xx-utils driver. The 6800 is listed as being capable of using the current nvidia/nvidia-utils driver. Installed that but despite the glossy nvidia logo flashing briefly, X failed to start, ending with a fairly cryptic error:
(II) Initializing built-in extension XEVIE
(II) Initializing extension GLX

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11. Server abortingThe whole Xorg.0.log file is here.
My xorg.conf file is here.
Any suggestions, as I've been tearing my hair out uninstalling & reinstalling xorg & nvidia packages and modules, all to no avail.
Originally the Option "Composite" "0" was set to enable, but changing it made no difference.
Reverting to nvidia-71xx works fine (but nvidia-96xx doesn't).

I had a problem like this (backtrace) once and it involved fgrlx being installed or not installed, I don't remember which. (I only have an nvidia card). I know it sounds ludacris but it is worth a shot.
