That sounds great Christian, sure thing!
I got my drivers working by compiling them in gentoo then either
running nvidia-xconfig and altering xorg.conf slightly or starting
from scratch (depending on which time, hah). The only time I had
trouble with my nvidia drivers was when I was using an example
configuration file. I knew that the culprit was something wtihin the
Screen Section so I tore it down and began re-adding line by line.
Wound up being
Option "UseEvents" "1"
which is funny since the example was from an aTV guide. Other than
that I've had no problems.
Robert,
That's what I've read also but every single post on the subject was at
least 2 years old so I was hoping something had changed since then.
I had posted a thread on the Gentoo forums and one of the post linked
to this:
ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/gpu-hdmi-audio-document/gpu-hdmi-audio.html#_hd_audio_architecture
with another confirming that the aforementioned link worked for him.
