My guess is that something changed in the version of Xorg between
f24
and f25. Anyone else seeing this? nvidia-bug-report is attached.
Your guess is correct. X went from 1.18 to 1.19. Seems it should have
gone to 2.0 since it is not backward compatible. Below is a message

At least I've updated the Howto to mention that nvidia isn't
compatible with Xorg server 1.19.
