Hi,

I got it to work.  During install, the glx drivers reported back an error
about my AGP lost being unsupported, and to try agp_try_unsupported=1.

As a result, I ran modprobe agpgart agp_try_unsupported=1

Then ran the installation for the driver

The installation ran smoothly, no errors were reported, then I followed
the directions on nvidia's website for updating the XF86Config-4 file.

One thing to note,  and I'm not quite sure how I'll be doing this (I've
received two different methods to set the options agp_try_unsupported=1),
is that you'll have to somehow run that command after each boot.

Basically, read the error message it reports.  That will tell you in a
round about way what to do.  Though nvidias error message aren't exactly
helpful in determining how to get around it,  it'll give you a start to
get around it.

Thanks

There's plenty of semicolons to go around
