Umm... thanks for your reply.

In my XF86Config.new2 file isnt my device driver for the nVidia card set to 
nvidia? So wouldnt that mean that i am trying to use nvidias drivers and not 
the generic "nv" driver?  I would agree with you but when i change my 
settings from nvidia to nv and also comment out the Load GLX i still get the 
same result... maybe ill try changing the s3 from s3virge to just s3 and see 
if that works...

Thanks for the help tho
Geoff
