If this has been discussed before, please accept my appologies. I

I used to have a tnt2 card and I remember it worked just fine with xfree
and nvidia-kernel. Did you make the appropriate changes in XF86config?

I want to thank all of you for your responses. With all of you saying
pretty much the smae thing, I decided to recompile the kernel without
