Hmm interesting, I'm now using the nvidia agp driver (Option "NvAgp" "1" in /etc/X11/XF86Config), and it seems stable at the moment (also had to upgrade to waimea 0.4.0 because it kept seg faulting)... haven't really stressed it though. Might be an interesting hint for people who are having problems with the nvidia drivers.
