[expert] XFree 4.01 fails for geforce2

[stephen boulet]

I did a fresh install of mandrake 7.1, upgraded to XFree 4.01 from cooker, downloaded 
NVidia's tarballs from nvidia.com and installed. This is the error message I get, and 
the screen section from the XF86Config-4 file follows after:

(II) NV: driver for NVIDIA chipsets: RIVA128, RIVATNT, RIVATNT2,
        RIVATNT2 (Ultra), RIVATNT2 (Vanta), RIVATNT2 M64,
        RIVATNT2 (Integrated), GeForce 256, GeForce DDR, Quadro
(EE) No devices detected.

Fatal server error:
no screens found

My screen section of the XFree86Config-4 file says:\

Any help appreciated.
