no, it's been working for me for a while.  once you --extract-only the
latest (4496) nvidia package, just apply that single patch
from www.minion.de, and take it from there.  this has worked for me
(geforce2go chip) for a long time now, along with the same tweaked
XF86Config file i haven't needed to change for the longest time either.
