[gentoo-user] monitor acting strangely when gdm starts

Hi.  I have a Nvidia GeFORCE 8400 gs and when I am using the text
console and frame buffer (uvesafb) things are OK, but when I start gdm,
the monitor acts as though it was disconnected altogether.  It works
under Windows through a KVM, so I am pretty sure the monitor is OK, but
I don't understand what happens when gdm starts.  I have
Nvidia-drivers-260.19.36 but even some earlier versions I try give the
same result.  Is my card going or what?

Any ideas would be appreciated.
