At weekend i tried move my system to Mandriva 2005. Unfortunately You
are right. kernel 2.6.11-12mdk and Xorg 6.8.2 + any Nvidia closed source
driver cannot start up any Nvidia PCI card!!! :-( I tried multiple nvidia 
driver versions, but all without success. AGP card surely works alltimes.

I fall back to 2.4.31-bruby + Nvidia 5336. I should recompile my 2.4.31
because of struct kbd_repeat incompatibilty with X 6.8.2 . I cannot recall
how many years i used that nvidia 5336, but i will not buy new video.
I have FX 5200 and TNT2M64 both PCI and FX440 AGP.

Nvidia closed source GLX implementation makes me happy.

Well, I tested many driver versions with TNT2 and it worked well with=20
version 7167, patched X.org <http://X.org> and a stock 2.6 kernel from RHEL=
=20
4.1 (the latest).
I had to make manual installations in some parts of NVidia.
Today I'll test this same drivers with GF2 MX400 cards.

I am running 7167 and have no problems:
AGP TNT2
PCI MX-440
Debian 4.3.0.dfsg.1-8 XFree86 server

I think the good driver for the cheap TNT2 is 7167.
I had a lot of problem with 6629 and the previous drivers.
Subsequent drivers didn't work claiming TNT2 as an unsupported card, and=20
suggesting to use older drivers.

Any suggestions on how to configure gdm.conf, kdmrc and xorg.conf so I can=
=20
get login windows on each screen an X server is running ?

I'd like to have independent display manager's login screen on :0.0, :0.1, =
:
1.0, :1.1.

Thank you,
Avi

like 7667 says that it cannot be used for "legacy
cards"
