Hi Lance,
I am using kernel 2135 with NVIDIA 5328 + GeForce4; and they all work
beautifully well together... I know it doesn't help you with your probl,
I just hope it at least gives you some hope...
Also, there are some issues with the new driver (specially with
VIA-based mobos), it looks like NVIDIA should release a fix soon.
Happy new year,
Andre

I was wanting to just take advantage of the new driver under the
2135
kernel. I suppose then that 4496 works under the 2135 kernel?

sorry for answering with question - but why do you need 5328?
this discussion thread will help you further:

anyway - i suggest, that you use public beta (4620) instead of 5328
