I am trying to connect my Optoma HD80 project to my Myth Box.  I have a
Nvidia 6200 that i am using a DVI-to-HDMI converter into the HDMI port of
the HD80.

Here is a copy of my xorg....

[root at mythtv myth]# cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
# Xorg configuration created by system-config-display

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "single head configuration"
        Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
        InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "kbd"
        Option      "XkbModel" "pc105"
        Option      "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
        Driver      "nv"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Videocard0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     24
                Modes    "1920x1080"
        EndSubSection
EndSection

This works ok but its running the nv driver not nvidia binary.  When i
change the driver to nvidia the desktop will load but when mythtv loads it
crashes X.  glxgears also crashes X.  here is the mythFE log....

what is the deal?  I know my nvidia drivers are good because i used to drive
my projector with component out, 1080i.

running FC6
uname -r
2.6.22.2-42.fc6


Ideas?

thanks,
mitchell
