I upgraded the drivers using Iain's ppa.  On first reboot, X failed to
start (Xsplash never showed up, screen stayed blank for several
minutes.)  The keyboard was responsive, and I was able to get to a tty.
I removed the dkms module, and edited dkms.conf to disable
fall_back_on_mtrr_if_no_pat.patch.  Built the dkms module, rebooted, and
all was well.

Then, I removed the dkms module again, re-enabled
fall_back_on_mtrr_if_no_pat.patch, rebuilt the dkms module, and
rebooted.  It is now working.  So I guess
fall_back_on_mtrr_if_no_pat.patch can be ruled out as the cause of the
problem.
