"The patch is a copy and paste of the patch posted by Christian from NVIDIA. He
however clearly states in his post that its a hack and not the correct/complete
solution.

I've discussed this issue with NVIDIA in detail and the net result is that
we're really going to recommend users of NVIDIA cards + OpenGL to steer clear
of 2.6.30 until a full work around the regression is completed and tested. It
will be out with the next driver bump."

Question being will that driver bump be done in time for Karmic?
