Re: NVIDIA | Xorg
I just tried the instructions that I posted earlier, and it worked. I can now shutdown and power-up and no problems when it comes to graphics.
One thing I noticed though is that my Touchpad's vertical scrolling no longer worked. So, I modified xorg.conf-- basically merging the old one (generated when I first installed Hardy) and the one generated by nvidia-xconfig(?) when I installed the driver. Here's the file:

(Again, just in case the reader landed on this post from a web search: This is for the LENOVO G450 with the NVIDIA GeForce G 150M graphics card.)
Other Stuff Since OP
Tested Bluetooth connectivity on my phone (SE W810i). Lappie and phone can bond; lappie can browse the phone's files; lappie can get files from the phone. I haven't tested transferring files from lappie to phone though.
Installed Blender 2.49a. Works fine as far as I can tell.
Installed Skype. I was able to get a good picture from the camera (see OP, part about Ekiga), and was able to make a test call. Works fine-- again, as far as I can tell.
