It's not so much an issue on what version of the nvidia drivers you
are using, but how they are packaged...

the libvdpau package was part of the nvidia drivers before ; with my
repo , this is not the case.

Note that Ubuntu 10.04 or the weekly mythbuntu repository are now
packaging libvdpau the same way I do ; so if you are upgrading your
existing 185.xx drivers from the standard ubuntu repo to the 185.xx
drivers in my repo or the one in mythbuntu weekly you'll have the same
problem.

However, if you are upgrading from 185.xx from ubuntu standard repo,
to 190.x or 195.x from my repo or mythbuntu weekly : then you'll not
have this issue of a conflicting package...

185.xx were crap anyway :)
