Hi, All.  We have several SL5 systems using the proprietary nvidia driver from 
sl-contrib.  We did not have any trouble with these systems until we tried to 
view video in EVO (ViEVO).  We have no problem using EVO with the latest 
260.19.29 drivers downloaded and installed from nvidia.com.  However, we are 
unable to view video when using nvidia-x11-drv from sl-contrib or 
nvidia-graphics260.19.21 from atrpms.  In all cases, xorg.conf is essentially 
unchanged.

Please see below for example output from unsuccessful and successful attempts 
at running ViEVO.  Any suggestions for fixing this using the sl-contrib (or 
atrpms) drivers would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Devin
