>Assuming that I follow with the apt-get install libvdpau1 step that you
have next, isn't that the cause of some of the issues?  That Ubuntu has
released updates that supersede the packaged nvidia-185 that you
provided, but which will still cause the libvdpau1 conflict that
prevents users from jumping from 185 to 190 or 195?

Anyone who thinks they are going to run up mythtv in five minutes and have it reach its potential is seriously using the wrong 
software.

See the thread "Subject: Re: [mythtv-users] Does anyone know how to fix duff install ofAvenard Resposity / NVIDIA 1.95 "

While it would be nice to have the information kept up to date, the packages or instructions are only nuisance broken, the man is 
now working as a dev and the packages once installed do work well.

History has shown when his things are seriously broken he is very responsive in fixing them.  I for one appreciate that.

While we could lobby him to keep his instructions more up to date I would prefer that users search the list for answers and have the 
dev continue focussing on developing and advancing mythtv.

Anyone else?
