Not that I know of, but I didn't follow this issue recently. AFAIK,
it's related to chip design, so it probably can't be fixed. Except,
maybe, emulating hardware overlay support via the driver, which
apparently again would involve CPU cycles.
The best place for Nvidia/Linux related issues is btw the
corresponding forum
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=14
Here the thread I originally posted in July
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=54336
and two more recent threads with complaints about the same issue
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=54992
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=53984
So my guess is no, this isn't/can't/won't be fixed.
