Using Jean-Yve's repository only for mythtv, and upgraded to the 180.60 
nvidia-vdpau packages from there as well. 

Fails to build on 2.6.31 :( 
Adding Module to DKMS build system
driver version= 180.60
Doing initial module build

Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 
2.6.31-020631-generic (i686)
Consult the make.log in the build directory
/var/lib/dkms/nvidia/180.60/build/ for more information.
Installing initial module

Error! Could not locate nvidia.ko for module nvidia in the DKMS tree.
You must run a dkms build for kernel 2.6.31-020631-generic (i686) first.
Done.

Round and round I go...  sigh.
