  I actually just upgraded to 2.4.13 and have been experiencing this
  problem also. I get 'Waiting for X server to shutdown', forcing me
  to reboot. I reloaded the Nvidia kernel again (no problems with
  that), but the GLX driver is coughing and spitting when I try to
  reinstall it. It can't seem to find or read
  /usr/X11R6/lib/module/nvdriver.o (filename may be a little
  different...sorry, I'm in Windows right now), but it's there. This
  is also nvidia version 1541 (latest stable).

  I'm not sure I follow this... how do I switch to an X vt, and how do
  you mean 'X should work again'? Just curious if you meant this as a fix or
  a work-around.

  Thanks for any info,
