This stopped working many kernels ago, and I thought perhaps it's being 
converted to a different API... but it hasn't been fixed yet..is it a bug?

This is 2.5.40.

That are patches floating about to make it work for 2.5.x; however it
has some 'schedule while holding locks' issues which may not be fixed
anytime soon.

Bug nVIDIA :)

This is the rivafb driver.  Not the binary provided by nvidia.

Oh, in that case it should be fixed soon.  Lots of the fb's are in a
state right now but it shouldn't take long before ther are fixed.
