The new driver works fine for me too.

I have found as have others that it sometimes takes two installs + a
reboot because of interactions with Mesa libs.

Also there are now two reasons to rerun the nVidia installer: kernel
updates and Mesa (GL) updates and perhaps some other X library
updates.  Hmm that may be three.

It may take a while before all the X-org,XFree86 and SELinux
interactions get tidy but we now have drivers that work
with the new stack size change.
