For those of use with Geforce 4 boards, 4.3.0 would be much better -
the 4.2.1 'nv' driver causes display corruption, of some fonts at
least, and the 'nvidia' driver causes crashes/reboots (though it is
fast and looks nice).

   It may be a while.  With the impending 4.8-RELEASE coming, Eric may
   choose to forgo such a big update.  However, we may want to commit it to
   try and make 4.8 that much better.  You'd have to ask him.
