Use a process viewer to see what is chugging through the usage. It probably
isnt your xorg configuration, although you might try changing the Modules
section to this...
Section "Module"
# This loads some basic X extensions.
Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension
# Some graphics specific modules
Load "extmod" # basic graphics subsystem extended
support
Load "glx" # glx support
EndSection
You might like to run revdep-rebuild -p and pay special attention to any
graphics stuff that is broken. Im also running the same chipset and it goes
flawlessly with that driver version.
Other posibilities, longshot but worth checking are sound (especially artsd in
kde), and gtk support (firefox dependancy).
PS you did run 'opengl-update nvidia' right?

A programmer is a person who passes as an exacting expert on the basis of
being able to turn out, after innumerable punching, an infinite series of
incomprehensible answers calculated with micrometric precisions from vague
assumptions based on debatable figures taken from inconclusive documents
and carried out on instruments of problematical accuracy by persons of
dubious reliability and questionable mentality for the avowed purpose of
annoying and confounding a hopelessly defenseless department that was
unfortunate enough to ask for the information in the first place.
