Video Driver

2D video works out of the box. To enable 3D (and compiz),

  1. go to system -> admin -> hardware drivers. Install "version current" driver (not 173, which seems to break suspend). Reboot
  2. go to system -> preferences -> appearance and change the setting under the "Visual Effects" tab. A "driver search" window may popup - cancel it.

Other Issues

Video working with default driver but no Compiz. Nvidia Driver v173 working but breaks suspend function.
