What about the renderaccel and nvagp settings?  My FX5200 (not, a 6000 
series either :) ) has just this:

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
        Driver      "nvidia"
        VendorName  "Videocard vendor"
        BoardName   "NVIDIA GeForce FX (generic)"
        Option      "XvmcUsesTextures" "false"
EndSection
