Comment:
It looks like the problem was the memory allocation in the your BIOS. The
drivers require 4MB per 1080i surface, plus they require memory for other
things. The nVidia drivers only support a maximum of eight surfaces so
you're not going to get completely smooth video with a 6150 at HDTV
resolutions. The 5xxx cards support chromakey OSD and so can have smoother
video. OpenGL OSD is available on all nVidia cards, but AFAIK none of the
6xxx cards is fast enough to composite an OpenGL OSD over the XvMC
Surface. Sorry.
