I downloaded 6.00.09 and tried to install, but couldn't because my TV reported "Unrecognized mode". I suspect the installer was trying to use 1280x720.

I had to use VESA and everything is installed. How do I get the nvidia working? I tried "pacman -S nvidia":
Code:
[root@mythtv ~]# pacman -S nvidia
resolving dependencies...
warning: dependency cycle detected:
warning: vdpinfo will be installed before its nvidia dependency
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: nvidia-utils conflicts with libgl. Remove libgl? [Y/n] y
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: ati-dri: requires libgl>=7.2
:: intel-dri: requires libgl>=7.2
:: unichrome-dri: requires libgl>=7.1-2
:: xf86-video-ati: requires libgl>=7.2
:: xf86-video-mga: requires libgl>=7.2
:: xf86-video-savage: requires libgl>=7.2
:: xf86-video-trident: requires libgl>=7.2

You may want to make a note of what is being overwritten/removed (just in case) and then issue:
Code:
$ sudo pacman -Syf nvidia

the -f switch forces pacman to install.
Code:
man pacman
for more details or information.

This did not work, this is what I did instead:
Code:
pacman -R ati-dri xf86-video-ati xf86-video-radeonhd
pacman -R intel-dri xf86-video-intel
pacman -R unichrome-dri xf86-video-openchrome
pacman -R xf86-video-mga xf86-video-savage xf86-video-trident
pacman -Sy nvidia
