X freezes

Hey, I just updated my system and installed the new NVIDIA drivers, which seem to be freezing my X.  The mouse still works but nothing responds, and I'm forced to ssh in and reboot.  I found this which describes my problem exactly:

Not sure if the patch duplicates one of the patches already being applied or if it is out of date.  Does anyone know how I can fix this?  Or does anyone know how I can use the generic drivers and get good resolution?  (switching nvidia to nv forces horribly low resolution on me)

Thanks!
