You have been subscribed to a public bug:
Maverick introduced the X server version 1.9, up from Lucid's 1.8
branch. Either way, users have to use Nvidia's version 173 (or 96)
driver if they have a pre-GeForce-6 card, such as the FX 5 series.
However, as Nvidia hasn't updated the 173 or 96 driver branches to work
with X server 1.9 (the current branch has), the driver doesn't work at
all, and X won't start.
