[mythtvnz] About time for some VDPAU testing

The release of the 180.35 drivers, comments that "This NVIDIA Linux graphics driver release supports GeForce 6xxx and newer NVIDIA GPUs"
 
Does this mean that we can use a GeForce6600 on an AGP card? Could breath some life into my old hardware if this is possible.

I notice VDPAU 180.35 has now been released, I'm on 180.29, has anyone tried the new version?

Is there a way to get the Proprietary Driver menu to pick up the latest beta, rather than the stable 177 version??
Cheers
Douglas.
