your last solution worked for me. Running Kubuntu 8.04 with 7600GS. Installed the beta drivers right from the word "go" on a clean install, X would fail. The crucial part for me was to blacklist the "nv" driver.
Without blacklisting nv, I would get this:
API mismatch: the client has the version 173.08, but this kernel module has the version 71.86.04. Please make sure that this kernel module and all NVIDIA driver... etc etc

I agree with being able to install beta drivers from the repos, that would be nice.
