If you do 'modprobe nvidia' manually what happens? I've found that recent changes to udev have caused the module to not automatically load anymore (the device nodes are not created) and manual intervention is required.

It seems to be working for me right now, I've watched a couple avis and DVD without much problem. Except some frame droppage causing audio/video to go out of sync now and again...and again...

I first updated the to the 1.501 kernel and recompiled the driver and it worked. It stopped working when I installed the last couple batches of rawhide updates last night. Tried recompiling the driver and rebooted and it worked again. It's been very finicky with some of the latest rawhide/kernel updates. I'm still trying to figure out exactly whats going on with a/v being outta sync quite a bit of the time, but at least in general the driver is working ok for me here.

The driver still seems broken with preempt_voluntary enabled. I'm just using preempt atm.
