Sounds similar to my experience. AMD K62-500 w/nVidia Geforce2 MX. SAX detected and set up the card OK. I selected my monitor, and 1280x960x24bpp. At reboot, KDM starts up, but the mouse cursor is transparent. However, 'fishing blindly' around the screen, I realize it's there somewhere, and the buttons work appropriately.
I posted this several days ago, and from one response, and some searching on the SDB, I added 'option "sw_cursor" ' to the Device section of XF86Config.
Well when you appeared I let it download the nvidia stuff and it told me to reboot, and voila latest nvidia drivers including 3d up and running, that was pretty painless. Now if only I hadnt deleted my crossover office stuff by mistake. grr dids
