I've heard other people say that too, but I've never had any trouble.
Mine's an ASUS GF4-Ti4200 8x 128MB, I've been running it in linux for at
least a year now. (and my linux box stays up 24x7)

I've got a friend who's has a GF-FX5700 and a 5900. He has been using
both for about 3 months without incident.

--Well, I take that back, there was an option for "RenderAccel" that I had
enabled that was corrupting (garbeling) the screen when transparency was
used in GTK. GTK fixed it in about a month, and to be fair, the nvidia
docs warned me:

THIS OPTION IS EXPERIMENTAL. ENABLE IT AT YOUR
OWN RISK. There is no correctness test suite for the
RENDER extension so NVIDIA can not verify that RENDER
acceleration works correctly.

But that's been the only thing.
