Well, the title says it all. on a geforce ti 4200 (maybe other cards too?) the newest beta driver from nvidia (9629) won't work. Every 3D-app exits with a segfault (tested glxgears, glxinfo, beryl, xmoto...). The previous version (9626) works though. Also see this thread:

EDIT:
News from nvidia:
"This bug is specific to graphics cards with NV2x GPUs. It will be fixed in a future driver release. The current recommended workaround is to downgrade to 1.0-9626 or 1.0-8776."

infobash can tell you, if you got a card with NV2x GPU:
infobash -v3

Code:
