Most problem is the missing kernel-module. Try to install nvidia-kernel-dkms
and nvidia-glx.

You must add "contrib" and "non-free" to the entries in /etc/apt/sources.list

like

deb ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free

as usual. Then install the packages. Everything should be
built automatically. After that make sure, nvidia-kernel is loaded.

Good luck! If it does not work, please feel free to ask again.

Thanks for the response.
But many times it starts. Only a few times it is not starting. With out required modules, I think it will not start at all.
