It is misconfigured and categorized into 'Other' in 'Device Driver Utility'. After adding 'BusID PCI:1:0:0' into xorg.conf. Gdm goes black with blinking cursor at top-left corner but other processes continue running. I can here the login sound, and are able to shutdown system with "Ctrl-Alt-Del". BTW The current nvidia driver cannot get screen depth, I use the latest official one(319.60) instead.
