I just ordered a new geforce GT-240. Newegg had a sweet deal for like

that handles both audio and video, but VDPAU performance is not so
good. Anyway, after I pulled the trigger, I got to wondering if the 240
can carry both audio and video over HDMI (it seems almost odd that a
video card can also function as a sound card, but I digress).
I did some reading and it seems that the GT-240 can also audio,
depending on your audio/video driver combination. Right now, I am
running nvidia-graphics-190.42-43.i386 from atrpms. I am also running
alsa-driver-1.0.20-80.fc10.i386 from atrpms.

Or you can wait a few days until Axel gets it packaged up. Alsa just
release 1.0.23 today, and GT21X support is supposedly in...

Not sure if it covers GT240 or GT220, but who knows? It might work!
Just an FYI, but the atrpms alsa-driver package is working fine with my
GT220. thanks to Axel for packaging and the Alsa team for an earlier
than expected release!
