I don't use 'em. Tho I have a GeF4, I use the XFree driver,
better 2d performance no imported bug/security/licensing/kernel
worries. BTW, there's an interesting thread concerning (nVidia's)
binary only modules and the GPL kernel going on at lkml.
To answer your question tho, any time you change kernels you
risk breaking binary only proprietary modules, drivers and
applications of any sort. So the answer is yes, particularly
with nVidia's modules.
