Yikes, that's a $300 card. You can build a lot of system for that. > > However can anybody with any certainty say that this fault/issue is > due to the TMDS on the card and not the Nvidia driver. I wish I knew, I haven't tried the cards. If I were not so frustrated I would go and buy the various other DVI cards -- mx4000, mx440, 5500 and such from a store that lets you take them back, and see if any of them work. > > If the driver is capable then I may seriously consider the 6800 as an > option. If not then I'll have to look elsewhere. The audio authority box can be had for $110 new, though it's not digital all the way of course. However, it does work with the 5200 card driving a TV at 1080i. But yes, I would like to see DVI working from linux. I mean I have seen it (With a Radeon 9200se) but the drivers can't go more than 1600 wide for xvideo as of now, and the proprietary drivers are limited to older kernels than I have, or so they say..
