Hello!
 
I'm using rather old hardware:
Mainboard (Asus A7N8X)
AGP (Asus V7700)
manfred@pc1:~$ lspci -v | grep VGA
03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation NV15 [GeForce2 GTS/Pro] (rev a3) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])

My operating system is SolydX based on Debian Testing.
 
The issue is that I cannot start the system w/o boot option "nomodeset".
I get this information after displaying Grub menu:
Linux 3.11-2-486 wird geladen ...
Initiale Ramdisk wird geladen ...

Loading, please wait ...
 
Then the system is freezing and I need to hard reset.
 
There's also an error when creating xorg.conf:
manfred@pc1:~$ sudo Xorg -configure
