I was running Ubuntu 6.06LTS with the nvidia driver from their package NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9629-pkg1.run. Xorg 7.0.0 crashed whenever OpenGL was used (e.g. glxgears, glxinfo). Replacing the driver "nvidia" with "nv" in /etc/xorg.conf fixed the crashes (but of course removed hardware accelerated OpenGL). I'll try a newer driver when there's time ... hope my information helped a little. The Graphics card is a GeForce 7600GS.
