is the module "NVdriver" loaded into the kernel (not xfree) ?
Yes, I checked it with lsmod.
are you using the linux-own agpgart support or the one from nvidia ?
Dunno. How do I find out? Which one is the right one, and where might I get it?

You can check the settings your nvidia card is using by
cat /proc/nv/card0 (or whatever number your card is in your system)
my system reports
----- Driver Info ----- NVRM Version: 1.0-1251 ------ Card Info ------ Model: GeForce2 GTS IRQ: 11 ------ AGP Info ------- AGP status: Enabled AGP Driver: NVIDIA Bridge: Via Apollo Pro KT133 SBA: Supported [disabled] FW: Unsupported [disabled] Rates: 4x 2x 1x [4x] Registers: 0x1f000207:0x00000104
And I get 2800+ fps with gears at 1600x1200 at 16 bits colour depth
I get only about 600. My card0 yields: ----- Driver Info ----- NVRM Version: 1.0-1251 ------ Card Info ------ Model: Riva TNT2 Ultra IRQ: 9 ------ AGP Info ------- AGP status: Enabled AGP Driver: AGPGART Bridge: Via Apollo Pro KT133 SBA: Supported [disabled] FW: Unsupported [disabled] Rates: 4x 2x 1x [4x] Registers: 0x1f000207:0x00000104 There's the obvious difference that my AGP driver is AGPART, not NVIDIA. But: pwa@suillus:/proc/nv > rpm -qa | grep NV NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-1251 NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-0 pwa@suillus:/proc/nv > rpm -qa | grep AGP pwa@suillus:/proc/nv > rpm -qa | grep agp pwa@suillus:/proc/nv > So it does look as though the correct NV files are there. And here are the relevant parts of my XF86Config file (uninteresting stuff elided): Section "Module" Load "type1" Load "freetype" Load "speedo" Load "extmod" Load "glx" EndSection Section "Screen" DefaultDepth 16 SubSection "Display" Depth 16 Modes "1152x864" "1024x768" EndSubSection Device "Device[0]" Identifier "Screen[0]" Monitor "Monitor[0]" EndSection Section "Device" BoardName "RIVA TNT2 Model 64" BusID "1:0:0" Driver "nvidia" Identifier "Device[0]" Screen 0 VendorName "Nvidia" Videoram 32768 Option "backingstore" EndSection Section "DRI" Group "video" Mode 0660 EndSection I've tried inserting an NVagp option with various values, but it had no effect.
