I just tried switching back to the "nv" display driver (using "dpkg- reconfigure xserver-xorg" after booting into recover mode). The only entries I made were for the amount of video memory (131072) and the maximum/preferred resolution (1440x900). When I rebooted into GDM, I got approximately the right 2/3 of the display (the left 1/3 was black) and the same behavior - login looks normal but I get a blank screen, no gnome splash and, after c. 30 seconds, a grey/white rectangular artifact in the upper left corner of the display area.
