I've fired off a question to NVIDIA, hopefully they'll respond.
Sometimes they respond ~immediately, other times it takes two months,
but so far they haven't dropped anything on the floor.

Well, you may have just become the resident expert on NV2x cards. You
have all the tools we have, and you also have the hardware, which is

hang out on #nouveau on irc.freenode.net if you have any questions.
