I wish it were that simple, see here's the problem...<div><br></div><div>Nvidia's older drivers don't work with the newer kernel, nor do they work with the newer Xorg implementations. Nvidia will not fix their current drivers or modify their older ones to be compatible. Yes, believe me, this isn't something I haven't tried already. I wouldn't complain if it was a royal PITA, and I've gone to the <a href="http://nnews.net">nnews.net</a> forums to ask for help but to no avail. </div>

</div>If you insist on using an AGP video card then just use the old drivers<br>
that work correctly. AGP is outdated period. Next you are going to<br>
complain that nvidia's drivers don't support VESA local bus graphics<br>
cards?<br>
