The Samsung is my Plasma TV. The Asus is my Motherboard. It has a
GeForce 8200 Video card and I am using the HDMI out on the motherboard
to connect to the plasma. The video is pretty goood I have to say. My
main issue is that the sound is not coming through the TV.
I have the following for aplay -L
front:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
HDA NVidia, VT1708B Analog

This is on a Debian Lenny system that is still pretty much stable bar
for the kernel, alsa, nvidia (kernel-sources and related files), lirc
and gcc packages. These are the latest unstable versions while
everything else is still stable.
Thanks in advance
