Thanks Jason - I just did a nvidia-xconfig followed by nvidia-settings, and it 
worked, using the latest 177 drivers on intrepid.
It turns out that when the nvidia drivers are installed, nvidia-xconfig is not 
run, which is used to create a xorg.conf that nvidia-settings can recognise. 
Hence, later when it comes to try and modify the existing xorg.conf file (which 
in my case was the default intrepid one), it doesn't know how to interpret it, 
and segfaults.

In summary, try a nvidia-xconfig before nvidia-settings!
