The very first suggestion was made to duplicate the issue on a non-nvidia 
card.  It's pretty difficult to fix something you have no access to.  Would 
you consider rebuilding your carborator to fix a leak if you didn't have the 
manual in front of you, or somebody to walk you through it?

The only way that these reports _can_ be taken seriously is if they are 
duplicated by a non-tainted kernel.
