Maybe try to add a file /etc/X11/xorg.conf (ask google, how it has to look),
and in it set the driver "nvidia".
Make sure, the nouveau kernel driver is blacklisted.
BTW: Is the proprietrary driver compatible with latest xserver-xorg again?

One more question.
When I boot my system directly to X (passing 5 at inittab) it stops at
a login screen and it enters in blackbox (the X manager that I am
using) but without running bbkeys. I've put the "/usr/bin/bbkeys &"
command in the /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc file before "/usr/bin/blackbox"
but
