The "nv" driver does not support framebuffer.  But if you were like me
that option pulled you in.  Find this in your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
file and comment it out.

  Option          "UseFBDev"      "true"

The framebuffer is needed for some programs, notably tuxracer, which
use it and you won't be able to run those programs without it.  Darn!
But at least you will have X running.
