Can you post what is in /var/log/Xorg.0.log?

Can you also test what would happen if you changed:

	Driver "nvidia"

in the Device section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf to:

	Driver "nv"

then try to restart gdm:

	sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart

I suspect that your 686 kernel doesn't have the nvidia kernel module
included. I'm making a guess based on my experience with nvidia cards
and new kernels in Debian since I currently don't run Ubuntu on the x86
platform.
