Crash bug with new Nvidia driver 295.71. Please update to 295.75 or 304.43 release.

Hi Ken,
small tip how to update NVIDIA driver would help:
shall we get it from nvidia directly or there is another way to do it.
Thanks and best regards.
Jon Tibble
Updated driver is in the repo - 295.75
pkg update -vn
should show the update

Dear All the Openindiana developers.......
Hats off to you.
You have done great job.
Remember?? I tried to update my OI-151a5 to OI151a6 on my PIV with 2.0 gm ram and 2.0 ghz processor. However, Impage was created,
update was successful, but I could not boot in to GUI mode of OI151a6, May be I did not try everything as discussed in Illumos WIKI, however,
I have another PC with Pentium Dual Core2.0 GHZ with 4 GB Ram and 1 GB NVIDIA graphics cardwhich I have packed and kept away.
Sicne It is 64 bit machine, with OI-151a5 side by side with windows 7 ultimate. I packed away my 32 bit machine for the time being and
took out this powerhorse and updated to OI151a6. AND VIOLA........
The update is successful and well it has detected my another network card with your new driver. hence when run device driver utility, all devices
were latched with their respective drivers and it shows zero network problem.
Well Only I wish to tell following improvements to be made which you stalwarts who are doing really GREAT GREAT GREAT job of keeping alive
openindiana can do:
They are as follows:
Congratulations to all of you for bringing out such as fantastic and wonderful, amazing OS.
Kindly make Illumion as GUI version so that people like me can try it and may be fall in love, thus we may have two grilfriends: 1 Openindiana 2. Illumion.
Ok. My comments will keep coming as and when I find the time for this additction.

For anyone upgrading who uses VirtualBox (tested with 4.2, could be true with older revs).
When I upgraded and rebooted, the VirtualBox drivers would not load:

I uninstalled and reinstalled VB, and everything is fine now.
