The mplayer I used before (which was probably from debian-multimedia
but just might have been from Debian) always made a feature of it. So
included it.  But take it it is useful for distributions but not for
me.

Assume above method amounts to ./configure && make but just then turns
result into a .deb package file.  But don't know.

The compilation failed, but worked after libvdpau-dev was installed -
it was what it seemed to ask for.

Using the drivers you get from NVidia's site:  NVIDIA-Linux-
x86_64-195.36.24-pkg2.run or similar.  Lenny on my box will not use X
without them.
