Hi, at last i got it work but i'm not pleased because i couldn't see any performance increment. To solve the problem i simple added this line in device section: Option "NvAGP" "1" which tells X to use NVIDIA internal AGP. (Note that i tried all values for NvAGP. 2 and 3 didn't function, black screen again, 0 and 1 functioned). With that i could see the Nvidia splash image at gdm startup. Also i tested my card again with "glxinfo | grep direct" and "glxgears", worked with no errors: glxinfo | grep direct direct rendering: Yes As i told i'm not pleased, here is my glxgears outputs: 1- Just after a gnome session, no additional program is running: 860 frames in 5.0 seconds = 172.000 FPS 973 frames in 5.0 seconds = 194.600 FPS 1003 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.600 FPS 1004 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.800 FPS 1004 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.800 FPS 1003 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.600 FPS 1004 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.800 FPS 1004 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.800 FPS 1004 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.800 FPS 1004 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.800 FPS 1003 frames in 5.0 seconds = 200.600 FPS 2- When i only move the terminal window continously (drawing circles) :( 83 frames in 5.0 seconds = 16.600 FPS 35 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7.000 FPS 43 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8.600 FPS 40 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8.000 FPS 41 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8.200 FPS 34 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6.800 FPS 43 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8.600 FPS 36 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7.200 FPS 28 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5.600 FPS 38 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7.600 FPS 37 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7.400 FPS I've searched for performance tricks and found options like RenderAccel, also tried it with "true" value but it only decreased performance. Can this be a kernel issue?. Or maybe NvAGP wansn't the real solution..
