nv driver problem
 
use "nv" driver in XF86config-4
when I startx, then switch back(or exit XWindow) to console, the console screen flicker (sometimes the screen shift down) .
I change driver from "nv" to "vesa" ,then startx again, then the console screen switch back to the original state. Now,everything well.

I'm using debian in my laptop.
my graphic card: nvidia geforce2 go

Try to use the drivers that Nvidia supply for linux instead. They will probebly work better.

I still want to use "nv" driver
 
There is nothing wrong with my Xwindow using "nv" driver. It only cause console problem.
How could I solve the problem?
I'm using debian linux.

unfortunately you are not losing your mind, I have the same problem on my
vaio running suse9.0
console is fine, and X is fine, but after exiting X and going back to console is screwed up.
