Every time I try it - there still are issues.
last time, grep would segfault under certain conditions, for example -
and other apps (such as balsa) would sometimes stall during startup for
long periods - solved be reverting to nv.ko

It's usable, sure - but it is definitely not as stable as open source
drivers.
So I don't do any 3d games in Linux anymore - I'm not much of a gamer
anyway. Tuxracer was nice though to play with.
