Strange thing, I'm having this:

$ sudo lshw -C display
  *-display
       description: VGA compatible controller
       product: GF100 [GeForce GTX 480]
       vendor: nVidia Corporation
       physical id: 0
       bus info: pci@0000:03:00.0
       version: a3
       width: 64 bits
       clock: 33MHz
       capabilities: pm msi pciexpress vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom
       configuration: driver=nvidia latency=0
       resources: irq:16 memory:f6000000-f7ffffff memory:e0000000-e7ffffff memory:ec000000-efffffff ioport:df00(size=128) memory:e8000000-e807ffff

But still I was experiencing the konsole window resize crash and fixed it by upgrading to nvidia experimental 275.09.04. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/archlinux/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/760632 for more info.

So although it's reported not being used and lshw confirms this, the driver is still being used to some level since I detected known problems with it and fixed it by upgrading.
