- Did you passthru all the PCI IDs or just one?
I'm only aware of one ID -> xen-pciback.hide=3D(01:00.0)

- Was it primary or secondary graphics adapter?
primary

- Motherboard vendor/model and BIOS version/CPU version
Asus P7P55D Evo
bios 1207 (old)
core i7 860

- How did it work.. did you have some issues?
the nv driver on linux works fine (as good as it can)
it takes a bit before you see VGA output on boot
the console cursor was positioned higher than normal (sitting at over=20
the halfway mark for the font)
shutdown of Xorg can leave you with a blank console
shutdown then Restart of domU without restarting dom0 may lead to no VGA=20
output, however you can still ssh in and startx (Xorg) and it will=20
produce output
