Solarois 10u3 used the nv driver and OpenSolaris swtcihed snv_b65 from the nv 
to the  nVidia I am not sure of all the reasons why maybe nVidia provides more 
feature enablement then what nv driver was Opensource?

One issue nVidia implimentation is the pixels are not cleared as the cursor 
moved with the backspace or left arrow on the  Mozilla or Firefox typing in a 
HTML form, So the pixels of the cursor are not solid and have shifted and on 
the left arrow characters that the cursor pass through pixels are left and are 
not cleared, this does not happen in star office or Openoffice, it seems to be 
font related

Two, the other is the syncing of the x-y boundaries when the X-server starts up 
on both dtlogin and gnome has 1/2 cm of black unused space at the bottom or 2 
cm on the right when using a wide screen LCD, it is reproducible when dual 
booting from XP back to Solaris, XP also seems to have this issue as well, but 
Vista does not and syncs correctly every time what ever the gnome-resolution 
screen resolution preferences tool, in my case I cam make use of most of 
1680x1050,  1440x900, 1280x1024, 1152x864  , 832x634, 800x600, 540x480, but the 
resyncing veyries on the right side of the screen when I change resolutions, I 
have a Asus N2NPV-VM MB w. 64meg enabled nVidia GeForce 6100.
