I have similar hardware (I think - desktop with 6200 on motherboard).
The driver claims to support XV picture adjustments but attempts to
change anything result in '-1' being displayed and no apparent change to
the picture. I'm also running SVN from around a month ago. I found on
Gentoo that using the absolute latest NVidia drivers improved the
default brightness from very very dark to slightly dark but I still do
not have working NV picture adjustment controls.
