Loic, thanks for the advice, I didn't intend the negative vibe of my message, but I guess Sitsofe's comment triggered an old sour spot in my mind. I'll try to be more careful next time.

Regarding this bug, it was part of my set of problems that the display was blank, so I thought it was the same or similar bug (Elsewhere I've learned that filing a duplicate was considered bad form, but apparently the culture is different here).

Generalising, this bug is related to the core bug of nvidia changing the driver in incompatible ways and the friction between closed source drivers and an open source community. Trying to provide support the combination is tough and you're doing a respectable job, thankless as it may be! But thanks from me, anyway :-)

Cheers
