wine users - Nov 2010 - Anyone has any kind of trouble with Nvidia driver 260.19?

I read in openSUSE forums that this new driver was giving several issues on
Linux, especially openSUSE (i.e. some native games were broken, problems with
KDE desktop and other kind of bugs). I updated my Nvidia driver before knowing
this and now I'm regreting it, even though my very few tests went normal
(Windows games such as Braid, American McGee's Alice and some emulators
under Wine ran normally, also desktop effects...). Downgrading the driver is not
so easy for me because I'm still novice in Linux and I feel unsecure...

Has someone gotten any kind of problem with this driver with Wine and generally
under Linux (the best if someone can tell about openSUSE)? Can it be a so bad
driver?

This is the wrong place to ask. None of that has anything to do with Wine.

If everything is working on your system, what are you worried about?

There were a couple of bugs about characters rendering with blue skin due to a
bug in the nVidia driver, though AFAICT it only affected the 400 series cards.

Supposedly it's fixed in 260.19.21, which was released on 2010-11-09. Looks
like it's not in the openSUSE nVidia repository yet, so you'll either
have to wait or use nVidia's installer.
