FWIW, this device is working fine for me here:

0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400] (rev b2)

with the nv driver.

The fd.o bug says:

"Use of the nv driver results in either a black screen, or a screen flashing in
small rectangles of many different colors"

So it is clearly not appropriate to use the vesa driver by default on this device, and the nature of the problem is still unclear.

this certainly doesn't happen here.
