9400 GT (device 065b) not detected by 180.22

[gotta get it]

Hi.

I just unwrapped a PCI 9400 GT from Sparkle and installed it. X is not able to detect it. lspci shows it's device ID to be 065b, which is not listed on any of the latest drivers supported GPU pages.

When will support for this device ID be included in the Linux driver?

Thanks!

Please try 180.27.

180.27 works great. Thanks.

Using the same card with an AMD2400 3G RAM, mythbuntu 8.10 and also 9.04, I get similar problems. Removing 1G of RAM allowed me to progress beyond "low graphics mode" however the screen only boots into the composite out after intially starting booting on the VGA screen. The TV desktop is faulty, I attach a jpeg also of the screen fault. The NVIDIA configuration utility will not detect the VGA monitor so I cannot add this. Your advice will be appreciated.

The funny thing is locate 180.44 finds nothing and locate 180.51 finds zillions of that version of file. Seems a bug to me. In mythbuntu the command nvidia-installer --latest
does not work either, implying the standard installer is not used?
Aaron your assistance will be warmly received please.
