The fix that I found seems to apply only to the trident driver, which
has the new AccelMethod option that seems not to exist in 6.06 LTS.

I wonder what has changed in the nVidia driver for Edgy, maybe there are
some new options possible there, too. I think you can get Xorg
-configure to generate the list of possible options. Log out and go to a
virtual terminal with Ctrl+Alt+F1 for example. Login in the virtual
terminal. Then stop the X session:

$ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop

With the X session stopped, you can run Xorg -configure to get the
output:

$ sudo Xorg -configure

This generates an xorg.conf in the current directory. When I did that on
the laptop, the xorg.conf I got had all the options listed and commented
out. I took some fiddling to find out which combinations actually
worked.

Furthermore, I don't see a man page for the nVidia driver. (There is one
for the trident driver, and there is one for nv but I'm not sure that
applies to the nVidia driver you install separately.) So maybe there's
even more guesswork to do :-(
