Using Hardy with the 2.6.24-16 kernel my notebook does not lockup anymore, but the graphics driver still won't run with more than 2 GB of RAM. Here is the error message taken from dmesg (with 3 GB of course):

[ 55.248869] NVRM: This PCI I/O region assigned to your NVIDIA device is invalid:
[ 55.248870] NVRM: BAR1 is 256M @ 0x00000000 (PCI:0001:00.0)
[ 55.248874] NVRM: This is a 64-bit BAR mapped above 4GB by the system BIOS or

[ 55.248898] NVRM: The NVIDIA probe routine failed for 1 device(s).
[ 55.248900] NVRM: None of the NVIDIA graphics adapters were initialized!

I attached the full dmesg output. Thanks again for your help.
