Hi, at last i got it work but i'm not pleased because i couldn't see any performance increment. To solve the problem i simple added this line in device section:
     Option     "NvAGP" "1"
which tells X to use NVIDIA internal AGP. (Note that i tried all values for NvAGP. 2 and 3 didn't function, black screen again, 0 and 1 functioned). With that i could see the Nvidia splash image at gdm startup. Also i tested my card again with "glxinfo | grep direct" and "glxgears", worked with no errors:

glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes

As i told i'm not pleased, here is my glxgears outputs:
1- Just after a gnome session, no additional program is running:
860 frames in 5.0 seconds = 172.000 FPS
973 frames in 5.0 seconds = 194.600 FPS
1003 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.600 FPS
1004 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.800 FPS
1004 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.800 FPS
1003 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.600 FPS
1004 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.800 FPS
1004 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.800 FPS
1004 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.800 FPS
1004 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.800 FPS
1003 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.600 FPS

2- When i only move the terminal window continously (drawing circles) :(
83 frames in 5.0 seconds = 16.600 FPS
35 frames in 5.0 seconds =  7.000 FPS
43 frames in 5.0 seconds =  8.600 FPS
40 frames in 5.0 seconds =  8.000 FPS
41 frames in 5.0 seconds =  8.200 FPS
34 frames in 5.0 seconds =  6.800 FPS
43 frames in 5.0 seconds =  8.600 FPS
36 frames in 5.0 seconds =  7.200 FPS
28 frames in 5.0 seconds =  5.600 FPS
38 frames in 5.0 seconds =  7.600 FPS
37 frames in 5.0 seconds =  7.400 FPS

I've searched for performance tricks and found options like RenderAccel, also tried it with "true" value but it only decreased performance. Can this be a kernel issue?. Or maybe NvAGP wansn't the real solution..

Hi,

hmm, your config&log don't look bad - maybe you should go to the official
nvidia forum and explain your problem there. The chance, that someone might
solve is, is much higher.

oh, and don't forget to run nvidia-bug-report.sh, it collects all info they
want.
