Installed these Nvidia patches to LM8.2 using kernel-2.4.18-6mdk.	   
NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-2880.i386.rpm  	 
NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-2880.mdk82up.i586.rpm

All video outputs now work to some extent but there is no brightness 
control with any -vo and here are some additional comments: Running 
tests with mplayer -ao oss:/dev/dsp1 -vo xxx dvd://1	
   -vo sdl:x11 - big pic; no onscreen menu control, too dark	
   -vo xv - doing what it was designed to do	
   -vo x11 - ibid	
   -vo gl - no pic: 1/3 of mplayer2 window is taken over by large 
pink rectangle; rest of window black; no onscreen menu control	
   -vo gl2 - pic plays in 2/3 of mplayer2 window; 1/3 large black 
rectangle; no onscreen menu control	
   -vo dga - framebuffer mapping failure; no pic, menu or gui control	
   -vo sdl - big pic; no onscreen menu control	
   -vo fbdev - ugly!!!; totally splashed colours everywhere across 
top of desktop outside viewer. 	
   -vo aa - digital imagery at its best; pic reversed in b&w made up 
of numbers & symbols; looks like some Winamp thing
