yes, vanilla nvidia 8756 driver (that is, not including patches the
gentoo 8756 package includes). All this under gentoo with a 2.6.15 +
gentoo patches kernel.

I'm not sure what you mean. /dev/agpgart and drm are enabled in the
kernel ('Y'. not 'M').

What is the symptom of the problem you solve with irqpoll? and (forgive
me, but) does that problem exist with this 1001 BIOS, or is this perhaps
a holdover of a solution to a problem with a previous BIOS? Just
checking ...
