I can confirm this. Just did a install of 9.04 RC and with version 173 (the recommended one) of the nvidia drivers i get a max of 640x480 resolution. Version 96 gives me the max resolution possible but i experience screen flashes and no compiz possible. 2D drivers only work like a charm. Also i get funny messages in dmesg:
