Am hopeful based on this changelog:

Changelog from upstream 256.52

  * New upstream release. Changes since 265.44: [sic: 256.44]
   - Fixed a bug that prevented XvMC from initializing in most cases.
   - Added support for xorg-server video driver ABI version 8, which will
     be included in the xorg-server-1.9 series of releases.
   - Fixed a bug that caused extremely slow rendering of OpenGL
     applications on X screens other than screen 0 when using a compositing
     manager.
   - Fixed a regression introduced after 256.35 that caused stability
     problems on GPUs such as GeForce GT 240.
   - Fixed a slow kernel virtual address space leak observed when starting
     and stopping OpenGL, CUDA, or VDPAU applications.
   - Fixed a bug that left the system susceptible to hangs when running
     two or more VDPAU applications simultaneously.
