Ah, I see.  They're listed in the attached Xorg.log.0 and lspci outputs.

In the first Xorg.log.0 you attached, the NV xserver says:

(--) Chipset Unknown NVIDIA chip found

and the chip detected by PCI probe:

(--) PCI:*(1:0:0) nVidia Corporation GeForce 7100 GS rev 161, Mem @
0xd0000000/24, 0xc0000000/28, 0xd1000000/24, BIOS @ 0xd2000000/17

isn't listed as supported by the NV server startup list.

The other two Nvidia chips you list:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation NV35 [GeForce FX 
5900] [10de:0331] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8400M GS 
[10de:0427] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])

are both listed as supported by the NV xserver.

I wonder if that affects the differences in behavior you're seeing?

I also wonder why you're not seeing the problems reported in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usplash/+bug/147623 with your
GeForce 8400M machine.
