This is probably a problem in the non-free binary drivers from NVIDIA. Or can you reproduce the problem with a different Xorg driver, too? You may want to report this problem directly to NVIDIA, following these instructions: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=46678 which includes running the nvidia-bug-report.sh script (which is shipped in the Debian package nvidia-glx) on your machine. If you do so, please leave a note and URL in this report so that we know where additional discussion regarding to this problem can be found.
