There's not actually that much to say - the latest drivers (8178, not sure about earlier ones) install fine, exactly the same as for previous X versions. It correctly worked out where X is installed to, putting the drivers in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers, as you'd hope. The only thing it does wrong is a couple of libraries (libXvMCNVIDIA*), which gets installed to /usr/X11R6/lib. Not sure what these actually do, but I assume they can safely be moved into /usr/lib.
