NVidia released a new stable driver today. You can download it here. A lot of fixes in this one, especially for their hardware video decoding, VDPAU. Also it fixes KDE4 Plasma OpenGL crashes, X server crashes, and crashes with redirected OpenGL.
Sounds good to me.
Update: Just installed the driver, and it also fixes a World Of Goo issue I had where it wouldn’t run under Jaunty AMD64. It now runs, and runs awesome!

thanks for the heads up on planet ubuntu… i checked a few days ago for a new driver but they didnt have one out yet. this fixed some opengl issues i had with compiz not dithering properly, so i couldnt be happier! they may be closed source, but at least they have the courtesy to update regularly.
