I ran "X -verbose 9 -logverbose 9 :1" while already logged into my KDE
session
and it brought up a black and white screen with a cursor shaped like an X.
I
then hit Ctrl-Alt-BS

Great. So now you have the /var/log/Xorg.1.log I requested. Please attach it.

and the screen went blank.

Should not happen. Driver bug.

There's something seriously wrong because I had to try booting up three
times
before the system successfully started without the screen going blank.
Should
I remove the packages I have and instead install x11-video-nvidia and
nvidia-gfx-kmp-default? I have a GeForce 7300 GS.

No. Obviously the driver does not work reliably for you. Better uninstall
the packages

* nvidia-gfx-G01-kmp-default
* x11-video-nvidiaG01

Doing this the configuration will switch to nv driver again.
