I talked with the nvidia guy and he assured me that there is no way that they'll fix this in the open source driver. that's rather horrendous.. anymore info on this? Was he referring to the nv developers from being able to figure out the magick? or that his nVidia people were unwilling to

He said that the clock on the chip is running in the lowest possible speed during boot and he added that clock settings won't be added to the open source driver. Setting a registry somewhere is obviously is a major IP hurdle to overcome. Stay away from this thing. I swear I have the fastest

Damnit, my T61 will arrive next week, and I didn't know how serious this issue was when I ordered the laptop =( I may be stuck with it, since Lenovo takes almost a month to deliver a laptop here in Brazil, and if I decide to change the motherboard, I wouldn't like to even think about the time it

Do you mean basic support for the card or for 3D? Basic performance (no 3D) should be supported by Xorg`s nv driver. There seems to be some problems with that though (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14803).
