If I were you, I'd try nouveau all the way. only reason not to would be gaming. One thing I still have to check out though is if the support for vblank is working, otherwise it might have some tearing when watching video. But I agree, it's a pain switching between nvidia and nouveau, but I'd be inclined to blame nvidia itself for that...:) In any case it's nice to see that a opensource alternative to the closed nividia driver is available and working better all the time! -- Joakim
