Hi Jeff Craig,

NVidia proprietary drivers (nvidia-current) do not accept the new ABI, which is required by the xserver 1.9 branch.
In order to avoid this you need to add the following lines to your xorg.conf.

Section "ServerFlags"
    Option "ignoreABI" "True"
EndSection

Nvidia-current_265.44 do work OK with xserver 1.9 after that.
You may, however, find that scrolling is not so fluent as it was with the xserver 1.8 branch.
We just have to wait for the new nvidia drivers to overcome that.
