Sorry for the slow report back.

I just retested this with 295.33 and still kills X most of the time.
It did let me undock and redock once, which I'd only seen with the
288(?) driver on a single occasion. So it may be more stable in this
respect.

This is running on a Dell Latitude E6410.

 Hello,

 Ref: ftp://download.nvidia.com/solaris/295.20/NVIDIA-Solaris-x86-295.20.run

 There was some thought into bumping the Nvidia video driver to 295.20 during 
 the prestable releases.

 This helps many laptop users mainly when installing and using the OI distro.

 The current Nvidia video driver, 280.13, used in the oi_dev repo has no major 
 bugs reported so the priority of
 this is low.

Since it is the main video driver we use for desktop graphics, just consider it.
