NVIDIA GeForce GT310DP 512MB PCIe X16
Puppy 528 boots and video displays on my Mitsubishi TV using the DVI to HDMI converter.
Installing nVidia driver did not go smoothly. Used quickpet driver install, it suggested the nvidia driver, I said OK, it ran xorgconfig, chose probe, it kept using the nv driver instead.
Manually ran xorgconfig, chose the nvidia driver, system is now using the nvidia driver.
Minor issue though, settings set from the nvidia utility are not saving and coming back on reboot, so setting the overscan compensation to fit the picture on the screen is reset each time.
Also, the HD audio successfully passes from the DVI to HDMI through the converter but the ALSA setting keeps going back to using the on-board analog sound instead of the nVidia HD sound on reboot.
