Let me make this clear:

As with many things -- this is _not_ a Linux problem but rather a
_vendor_ problem.

If you own one of these cards, please take the time to send a letter to
NVidia asking them to open their cards up via sample code or
documentation in the same manner that AMD has committed to doing.  There
are rumors that NVidia is preparing a Free Software integration in the
future.  A polite but stern email might help to speed this along.

Proprietary garbage helps no one, slows down development response time,
and creates issues all across the board.


On a side note, completely removing the older driver in Ubuntu and replacing it 
with one of the newer ones as mentioned has resulted in uptimes of greater than 
60 days for me.  YMMV.
