Is it the nvidia driver or the framebuffer that's different I wonder?

Do you have any working kernels/nvidia driver's still installed?  Boot
to one of them, reset your monitor, then boot to the current
configuration (without resetting the monitor).  Then see if its the
framebuffer in the new kernel that is out of whack, or the new nvidia
driver that is different.

In either case, someone else with more knowledge about such things will
have to help!
