"NVidia has to fix it's driver" is the solution, This is the major stability breach. There is really no reason to upgrade xorg-server to 1.5.3 if nvidia driver can't work with it since nvidia is the major card provider and maybe half of all systems run nvidia. I believe xorg should be downgraded back to 1.4.X until the issue with NVidia driver is resolved.
