Indeed. The driver referred to there is at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/nv-bsd/ ; I've yet to get it working
with the Geforce2Go. The Geforce2Go has a second DAC to drive the LCD,
so there may be issues to be resolved. I'm planning to play more this
weekend.

If you run -CURRENT, track down Matthew Dodd's driver. I've misplaced
the URL; search the archives of this list. It was posted fairly
recently.

Regards,


Nick
