horrible kde 4.1 performance on nvidia cards with latest beta drivers

This is a shame for nvidia, I have a pretty new XPS m1530 laptop with 8600 GT  card and it sucks in KDEMOD 4.0.99
If anyone has tweaked their xorg.conf please do share.
What a crappy company. Release the damn drivers to so that open source developers can fix it.

Again users have to make some changes which does not bring the performance up to the mark...

Well it is horrible even with the stable drivers, I guess you should read http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=115916
This is not typical whining about beta stuff, the performance is as bad with compiz

Even a chicken can install Debian, when you put enough grain on the enter key.
