and use the NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-8178-1444349.diff.txt patch to the 7676 driver. After fixing a few links, it's up and running.

Must say that I'm a bit bemused at applying an 8178 patch to the 7676 driver, but have not gone through the patch to check. I'm equally puzzled as to why the 8178 patched driver does not work as my chip is on the list.

As an aside I'd comment that the biggest pain was the crash forced an fsck and on a couple of occasions also required manually running a full fsck.


Going through the patch leads to just more questions.
Sad that the closed source driver still is the best there is for nVidia cards.
