I am presuming you are using debian testing/unstable? with X 4.1.0? If so
you can get X working without the nvidia drivers, what the drivers give
you is accelerated 3d so you can play things like quake. Indeed if you
don't ever use 3d then you will most likely never need them over the "nv"
driver included with X4.

If you want a working XF86Config-4 file (which doesn't need the drivers)
let me know and I will mail you one....
