AFAIK, X is reporting as used memory the AGP aperture size it has mapped
to access the card. So if your AGP size is 64 Mb, there you have 64Mb
of 'fake' or 'unreal' usage.

top not work right - can't be. gkrellm look better- more real and
gtop say RSS is ~35M. 
Look like top is giving "resident", not "resident set size", for
RSS and include what has been swapped out.

"uptime" will do.  Also "top" will give it to you.

I think I heard somewhere that it's because the actual card keeps like 3
pages in its own memory, and top doesn't understand that, or something
like that.  I have the nvidia drivers too.  If you look at your tottal
memory used, you can tell that top isn't reporting the X memory right
(at least I can on mine).  I think the total memory used, free, etc. is
a much better indicator.

I'm using the NVIDIA drivers and antialiasing gtop shows memory at 129900 at 
this second.
