I installed them last night. They seem to work fine.
It didn't have any problems compiling for the -ac3
kernel I'm running.

A quick run of glxgears didn't show any performance
improvement, which is also what linuxhardware.org is
saying after running some game tests.

I installed the new drivers and things are working just great with
MythTV. FYI, I'm running Redhat 8.0

Turn on render accel (add: Option "RenderAccel" "1" to your xf86 config file)
for a rather nice boost to speed.. The new drivers also fix some Xv scaling
bugs, so, all-in-all, I'd say it's a fairly nice release.

I'd like to know if anyone has been able to get the new overscan option
to work. I've been asking around for any information on what encoders
are supported (my Phillips 7108 is not supported) since I have a few
friends I could swap boards with if they had an encoder that worked.

I think maybe my board is a "special" one since it has this VIVO stuff
(you can capture video with it, albeit very poorly.)

Anyone take the plunge and try out the new Nvidia drivers released this
week? Any problems with the new drivers and MythTV?

For anyone scanning the archives, I just installed the new nvidia
drivers. With RenderAccel turned on (on my GeForce4 MX 440), my
system freezes when I go into any myth screen with UI elements on it.
With RenderAccel turned off, it works fine.
