I tried it with a removed nv driver (so that it uses the vesa driver) and it starts successfully.

Segmentation fault at address (nil)

The xserver logfile is attached.

This is my first bug submitted here, so please don't be too harsh.
I will provide additional infos, if needed.

Looks I'm getting something similar:

Backtrace:
0: X (xorg_backtrace+0x3b) [0x80afc1b]
1: X (0x8048000+0x5c5b5) [0x80a45b5]
2: (vdso) (__kernel_rt_sigreturn+0x0) [0xb78ba40c]
Segmentation fault at address (nil)

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting

again works fine with the vesa driver.

Will attach log.........

This should be fixed with version 2.1.17.
