Yes, it is.  The old nvidia proprietary driver had no problems with the
old X server, but crashes the new one when GL is used.  The new nvidia
proprietary driver does not exhibit the problem.

I do not use any, apart from those in xscreensaver-gl.  I tried the
small demo glxgears.  If you think this is not enough, can you please
suggest something else to try out?
