I spent all of last night trying different things on -current to get the Geforce 2 on my laptop and the Geforce 4 in my main computer to work. Tried the nv.tar.gz patches. No good. Tried the NVidia driver with the mtrr patches. No good. It seems that the cvsup from last night is much worse than earlier builds. I did once get the nv.tar.gz method working on my laptop. That was from a cvsup the day after DP2 came out. Good grief, I couldn't even get grub to load so I could try out OpenBSD on drive #2. Time to do something else instead of computers.
