Any known problems with 2.6.32.5 kernel, xorg 1.7.3.902 and nvidia 190

Hi everybody.

Last update I did was when xorg 1.7.x (where x is between 1 and 3, dont remember), and it broke my xorg, I had some glitches with graphics, and x randomly crashed.
Now xorg 1.7.3, kernel 2.6.32.5 and nvidia 190.53 is here for pretty long time and as arch suer I feel committed to update

So i read the forum here a bit, and havent found any particular issues that broke the system, but I want to be safe.

I got nvidia geforce 6600 agp if it does matter.
So is there any particular issues that can arise after updating?

Thanks a lot!

Similar problem here, after updating xorg and nvidia driver the system freezes with nvidia logo on display and caps lock and scroll lock leds blinking.
I got nvidia geforce 7300.

Any solution to this besides downgrading?
