just change the driver to "vesa", by editing your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (or whatever) file...

have you thought about installing the official nvidia drivers??
if you do, remember to change the driver name to "nvidia"...
you can get the drivers here:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_d..._1.0-6106.html
also, keep in mind that the generic driver usually works, and the reason you're having problems might be the monitor configuration...
what error messages do you get when you start X???
