Just for the record, here are my results from testing nvidia's drivers 260.19.06 and 260.19.12:

Version 260.19.06
===============

First I installed the 260.19.06 drivers via jockey, restarted my system and got the following kernel oops: (see attachments: kern.log_260.19.06)

I uninstalled the 260.19.06 driver by doing an apt-get remove nvidia-* --purge.

Version 260.19.12
===============

Then I tried the newest drivers from Nvidia by downloading 260.19.12 from their site. I tried to start X and got the following error: (see attachments: messages_260.19.12,kern.log_260.19.12, nvidia-bug-report.log_260.19.12):
