NvAGP options are explained in the NVIDIA linux drivers readme, on the NVIDIA website, here: <a href="http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-9629/README/index.html">http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-9629/README/index.html
</a><br><br>Or more precisely, here: <a href="http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-9629/README/appendix-d.html">http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-9629/README/appendix-d.html</a><br><br>It's well worth reading the whole thing if you've not already done so.
