There's a Ubuntu Forums thread at <a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=255929">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=255929</a> that has an updated version of the nvidia driver. I haven't tested it and can't condone it's use (ie, don't complain to me if you install it and it doesn't work), but I installed it and X still loads, and says it's now loading the 8774 driver. So, we'll see how this plays out. Hopefully it wont introduce any new bugs.
<br><br>superm1's mythtv packages were also updated at the same time, so for the next little while I'll have to determine if any problems I encounter are a result of the nvidia change or the new mythtv packages.<br><br>Speaking of which, Mario, what's new in these packages?
