Forwarding to #642757 which is the first of the merged bugs,
so it's easier for people to find this workaround.

I got a couple personal emails replying to this bug wondering how I solved 
it.

My solution is similar to the reports above.

I used:
deb http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20110911T211512Z/ testing main contrib non-free
And rolled back:

[DOWNGRADE] xserver-xorg-core 2:1.11.1-1 -> 2:1.10.4-1
[DOWNGRADE] xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.6.0-2+b2 -> 1:2.6.0-2+b1
[DOWNGRADE] xserver-xorg-input-kbd 1:1.6.0-3+b1 -> 1:1.6.0-3
[DOWNGRADE] xserver-xorg-input-mouse 1:1.7.1-1+b1 -> 1:1.7.1-1

I didn't need to touch the nvidia stuff, and both versions of nvidia 
worked with the older xserver packages.
