My deepest apology for the few bits that were wrong in the first driver. I
just uploaded a new version that should fix the unresolved symbol and at
least on my machine doesn't crash using mplayer -vo xv as reported.

The new driver is at:

http://people.no-name-yet.com/~fabbione/nv/i386/

(other archs might follow soon)

Notice that there is also a riva128.o that needs to be installed in the
same directory as nv_drv.o (see my previous post).

The code has been submitted in my personal branch on the SVN repository so
it is publically available, but i still signed the md5sum with the same
key as I did before since there are only precompiled binaries on the
website.

I ask you kindly to test this driver again and let me know as soon as
possible if it works or not.

Thanks
Fabio
