Beta nvidia amd64 driver for 7-STABLE, 8.x

[Tom Evans]

Hi all

nvidia posted a beta version of their amd64 X11 driver [1]. This
'accelerated' driver supports recent RELENG_7_2, RELENG_7 and 8.0
RELEASE and above. It also requires a recent nvidia card (Geforce 6
series or above).

For ease of testing, I've modified the port x11/nvidia-driver to allow
it to be installed through ports (see attached patch). The patch is
quite hacky (wont work on non amd64 systems for a start). OpenGL,
VDPAU, Twinview etc should all work correctly. There have even been
reports of someone successfully running WoW in wine, in a i386 chroot
with this driver[2].

Now all I need is a working build of mplayer with vdpau support :)

Cheers

Tom
