If I add noaccel, I get a dark grey background, with very dark gray or black letters on it. It's readable if you can guess what is written, like boot messages. xorg works fine (using the nv driver), and the strange part: once I've switched from Xorg to a console (ctrl-alt-F1), the console looks fine. Also, if I leave X11 after having switched to a console and back to Xorg, the console looks fine. I hope this jogs someone's memory - I basically trying blind. Anyone care to guess what goes wrong? I didn't think the 7600 was such an exotic card...
