Is you use less -R /var/log/boot.log the color escape sequences should
be rendered properly.  I've got no clue about gnome-system-log.

It may be that nvidia-config-display is crashing.  From a very quick
look, that seems to come from /etc/init.d/nvidia.  Maybe you can poke
around there and see which command is failing.  I think it's probably:

    action $"Enabling the $name driver:" $exec enable

where name=nvidia and exec="/usr/sbin/$name-config-display"
