I've remembered another strange thing. I have kernel 2.6.20-16-386 but I
can't persuade the nvidia module to work at all with that. Hence I'm
using kernel 2.6.20-15-386.

Is this a dup of 95956?


I found Bug #108578 which looks somewhat similar. It pointed me to 
/etc/modprobe.d/lrm-video, which was 
## Make nvidia/nvidia_legacy and fglrx use /sbin/lrm-video to load
#install fglrx /sbin/lrm-video fglrx $CMDLINE_OPTS
#install nvidia /sbin/lrm-video nvidia $CMDLINE_OPTS
#install nvidia_legacy /sbin/lrm-video nvidia_legacy $CMDLINE_OPTS
#install nvidia_new /sbin/lrm-video nvidia_new $CMDLINE_OPTS
#
I uncommented all lines, but no luck - no apparent difference.

At least 108578 taught me I just have to sudo dpkg-reconfigure 
linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-15-386
to get it to work, not uninstall and reinstall the whole of xserver any more.
