The nvidia driver requires a little more than an update to the pc_ids to fully
support this chipset. (It works correctly under X11 but the console VT's
don't work right after the nvidia driver has loaded... Problem looks like a
bit like a horizontal CRT sync issue)
That sounds rather like a configuration problem which I had a long time
ago (1.0-76xx) where the kernel was loading the nv_agp module which it
shouldn't have - no problems since. I have 1.0-9764 installed on two
boxes x86 and x86_64 without VT problems.
# lsmod|grep nv
nvidia 4715092 28
agpgart 33616 1 nvidia
My card on the 64x2 box
# lspci|grep VGA

However, the nv driver will work at 1280X800... which is OK until you need
3D.
