FWIW, running restricted manager (system -> administration -> hardware drivers) and selecting nvidia driver version 96 (the oldest avail. version) fixes the problem for me in intrepid. It might have made something else slower, but I can't tell what after a few days.

I've got a nVidia Corporation G72M [Quadro NVS 110M/GeForce Go 7300] (rev a1) on amd64 here.

I'm psyched to see the mainline release fix this bug in 180.06 tho. More here:
