And both nvidiafb and vga16fb are known make Nouveau misbehave: nvidiafb because it messes up the card state, and vga16fb because it does not do the fb driver hand-over, AFAIK.

Hi! I tried enabling staging nvidia driver on GT220, but apparently driver does not know about it. Unfortunately, I have one of those cards here. (I wonder... is there better mailing list?

In this case, you'll be stuck with non-accelerated nouveau until somebody extracts the ctxprog from blob mmiotrace on your card -- come to freenode.net IRC channel #nouveau if you need help with that. However, that shouldn't happen, since the GT220 chipset is already supported. I don't really need 3D acceleration, I'd just like to use whole size of screen... (and found out how to do that even now, after X update with vesa driver).
