Does anyone seriously know how to file a bug report to nvidia? I searched and came up blank. I admittedly didn't try that hard...

http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthr … ?p=2329622
it works with x64 for me.
That patch is a smarter version of what I did in my PKGBUILD. Good find.

you managed to install the driver 256 with the kernel kernel26-ck?
I have the same problem
No I haven't. I've just been using Nouveau drivers. Unfortunately I'm getting the urge to use Compiz again...

Has anyone figured anything out?

I believe it's a Nvidia driver error. It's best if we ask for help in its forums.
