[mythtvnz] Total fail after update

Yesterday I rebooted my combined master backed/frontend machine (Mythbuntu 
with JYA's repositories) after a kernel update and had a total fail with X. 
While the logon manager will come up, when I log on I simply cannot get an X 
session, I can't even get it to run in failsafe low graphics mode. I have a 
GT220 card, driver is 260.19.06, kernel is now at 2.6.35-25.

Every time I try to logon I get this in dmesg: 

mtrr: no MTRR for cf000000,e00000 found

I have also been seeing this:

NVRM: os_raise_smp_barrier(), invalid context

From various forums I see this appears to be an on-going issue with nVidia 
drivers and the GT220/240/etc cards. I've tried booting with earlier kernels 
with no success. Has anyone else ssen this? Anyone got a suggestion for a fix?

Cheers.
