Cool. Running MythTV on display 0 or display 1? And can you switch 
MythTV from one to the other without problem? Just trying to get a grip 
on what displays in what configurations the nvidia driver will 
accelerate...

It's not actually me having the problem. I don't use dual displays, or 
even use TV-out at all (I use a VGA->Component Video adapter to feed my 
HDTV now). I was just trying to lend Harry a hand (but I think he's 
figured out something that works now).  But thank you anyhow! Perhaps 
it'll help Harry further tweak his setup. :)
