>Description:
This is an upgrade of nvidia-driver to the latest stable upstream copy.
Combined with the new Xorg, I've seen a performance increase with the new driver, where it no longer consumes as many CPU cycles as it used to under certain circumstances; my method of testing was compiling a few apps in ports or doing make buildworld -- it used to eat up ~100% CPU on just displaying the text in a XFCE4's Terminal app.
One thing to note is that the logic in the plist and the Makefile are duplicated in areas -- hence that's why I had to modify both.
Please hand over to danfe@ to review and commit.
