Well, I have my Quicksilver running perfectly with YDL 3.0
The only differences with your set up are:

> Section "Monitor"
>     Identifier    "Monitor0"
>     VendorName    "Monitor0"
>     ModelName     "Monitor Model"
>     HorizSync     30 - 130                       *31.5 - 48.5 *
>     VertRefresh   60 - 60                        *40.0 - 70.0*
>     Option        "DPMS"
> EndSection

But I'm NOT using an Apple Monitor

> Section "Device"
>     # no known options
>     Identifier    "GForce 2 MX (generic)"
>     Driver        "nv"
>     VendorName    "GForce 2 MX (generic)"
>     BoardName     "GForce 2 MX (generic)"
******** I don't have this and it works*****************
>     BusID         "PCI:0:16:0"    (I had to add this manually)

>     Monitor       "Monitor0"
>     DefaultDepth  16
>     SubSection "Display"
>         Depth    16
>         Modes    "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"

This would make me think you have to look for the best parameters for your 
monitor, not for the graphic card.
