+This xf86-video-nv driver package contains support for the NVIDIA GeForce 8
+series of graphics processors.
+
+There are a few caveats of which to be aware:
+ - The XVideo extension is not supported.
+ - With X servers prior to version 1.2.0 (X.org 7.2.0) on 64-bit Linux or most
+ non-Linux platforms, the driver may fail to restore the console due to bugs
+ in the server's x86 emulator.
+ - The RENDER extension is not accelerated by this driver.
+ - Only one output can be used at a time. Work is in progress in the randr-1.2
+ branch to support dual-head output.
+
+Bugs should be reported at http://bugs.freedesktop.org/ under the "xorg"
+product, "Driver/nVidia (open)" component. Please be sure to fill out the
+platform, OS, and severity fields. Also attach a copy of your Xorg log file and
+provide a detailed description of your problem and how to reproduce it.
