Great: I bought a 2xx card because I heard that the 4xx cards were crippled on Linux. Now it turns-out that they don't work either. I appreciate that this is an NVIDIA problem and not the fault of anyone in the Linux community but that doesn't reduce my frustration any. This pretty-much rules-out every affordable NVIDIA card produced in the last 3 years. Good job I didn't treat myself to that 285 I always wanted!

I read about people using high-end vids cards for cycles rendering in blender all the time. How do they get thier cards working? Is there any reference chart of cards that actually work so I don't waste any more money? Any citations would be much appreciated.
