Yes, however the current nvidia binary does not work with the new version of
xorg.  The beta drivers apparently do, however I'm having issues with those,
and I'm not sure why... working that out right now.

My solution to Nvidia driver inconsistencies has been to download

will, in most cases, rebuild its own custom kernel tailored to your 
system which, therefore, works properly.
