[gentoo-user] What settings for nVidia G72 [GeForce 7300 LE] video card?

2010-06-09 Thread Walter Dnes
  I'm converting an older Dell E521 AMD K8 machine from XP to Gentoo.  I
intend to use it with an HDHomerun ATSC tuner, for recording and
playback.  I don't know if it supports AGP, but I am including...
<*>   AMD Opteron/Athlon64 on-CPU GART support
<*>   NVIDIA nForce/nForce2 chipset support
...in the kernel.

  I notice there are both "nv" and "nvidia" drivers available.  Which
one do I use?  Also, are there any special settings in xorg.conf to
watch for?
