Is there an alternative to the Nvidia driver? If so, I sure would like
to know what it is!
Yes, the open source "nv" driver. Does not support hardware accelerated
3D, but then again we care more about free software than being able to
use every bell and whistle, right?
I care about getting the job done well, first of all. I sure would like
it to be FOSS, though!
On my systems, the nvidia driver seems to work better for mpeg2 than nv.
That's why I'm using it. But, it too has problems on some older nvidia
chipsets.
