I can't say that the following is the original configuration
but it does hang the machine at startup.

Does this work any better in FC7?  There have been a few fixes in there that are
relevant to nv40 series.

Don't know, I'm still using RHEL5-beta2.
I'm planning on changing back to FC some time soon so 7 sounds good.
I'll let you know what happens.

No further hardware enablement updates are planned for RHEL5's X stack.  If
this issue still occurs with RHEL6, please fix the affected product version and
reopen this bug.
