hi baltazar, hi list !

having access to the net with my personal machine right now, i tried to
upgrade nvidia's drivers to 1.0.2313.
gues what it did: crashed the X-server when closing the Gem-window.
downgrading to the 1.0.1541 drivers removed this problem.
i have not (yet ?) tested, whether other applications crash too (but i
guess not) and why gem does not like the new ones.

anyhow, downgrading seems to be save (the 2313-drivers did make it into
the unstable release of debian, but not yet into the testing release
(where the 1541 drivers remain; i guess this has some reason)
