3DImage975? You have my sympathy - I spent a month working out how to configure XFree for this monster back when I was using RedHat 6.0. You could try the "noaccel" option, though I don't know if 4.* still supports this (the acceleration in this card is so minimal you probably won't notice the difference). Hacking modelines might also do the trick. If you have the money, upgrade your card to one of the lower-end NVIDIA cards, and you _will_ notice a difference.
