LOL! It wasn't a "crash". It just seemed like it because the mouse and
kbd were disabled.

Apparently, the above is the default!?!?

The line 'Option  "AllowEmptyInput"  "no"' must be added to the server
section of xorg.conf.

BTW, what is the purpose of two module dirs /lib/modules/<uname>/video
and /usr/lib/xorg/modules
for the nvidia drivers. Are they both being used? Which is the correct
one to use in xorg.conf?

This is a userspace X module
