Which module of nVidia?

I  don't think you can expect anything to improve over time unless you
help  the  process  by  creating  a  bz  with  full details about your
hardware, and a good description of the problem.

All   of   the   distributions  ultimately  obtain  their Xorg server,
drivers,  and  mesa from the same sources.  This means sooner or later
bugs   are   likely  to  reach  all distributions unless we contribute
in some way towards helping fix them at source.

The situation isn't helped by folks using the Catalyst and nVidia binary
drivers (in Ubuntu and derivatives) as it removes any pressure to have
working open source drivers.
