2.2.18 / nVidia Driver Weirdness

Hmmm...

I've decided that my recently downloaded, official nVidia drivers (for a
Riva TNT2 Ultra) are causing my system to become less stable than it
normally is. I suspect that it's speaking very closely to the kernel
itself to the extent where a driver compiled against 2.2.17 won't work
with Kernel 2.2.18 without a rebuild...

In and of itself I don't this is particularly unusual, except there's
some closed source OpenGLX drivers that I simply can't build and every
now and then my system goes bust but only when I'm running X...

Anyone experienced this?
