Those numbers indicate you are not using the nvidia drivers, and the sysinfo confirms it.
That card should be well supported by the nvidia legacy driver, available on their website.
I'm using a similarly aged card (GeForce 2) and I found that although there were legacy drivers for it, they didn't work with the supplied 2.6.18.2-34 (IIRC) kernel.
I have 3 machines, each has an nVidia MX-400 card and 2 of them work just fine with the nVidia legacy driver from nVidia's website after it is executed from run level 3 (init 3) from root. The one odd one won't compile because it can't find the kernel source. I got really pissed at that GATEWAY PIECE OF S___ and put Windows XP on it and am giving it to an enemy, As a footnote, I pulled the nVidia card out of the Gateway, put back the p.o.s. ATI Rage 128 that it came with. XP works fine on the box and Direct-X works just fine with the video card and all is right with the world and Google Earth renders it's polygons ok. Hurray for XP.
