Anyone tried the current nVidia-driver with the new X.org 7.3? I heard

It's broken. Apparently the X.org drop uses a new ABI. [Thanks for
the note; I wouldn't have fully tested my upgrade otherwise.]
I guess I'll be dropping back to the open-source "nv" driver for now.
Mssr. Thoumie: could you add a warning to the UPDATING entry?
Thanks for reminding me, will do in a second.
You have to make sure the Composite extension is disabled and start Xorg
with startx -- -ignoreABI.
Nvidia will be releasing a compatible driver shortly.
