The current nvidia drivers don't support xorg 7.1 (xorg-server 1.1.*). You can either downgrade xorg-server, or switch to the nv driver (that's what I did). The official nvidia drivers will probably get xorg 7.1 support in the next revision, which should happen RealSoonNow, since the latest Windoze version of the drivers came out a few days ago.
