Hi,
 Me again...now that I have my Cisco 350 working...I have X working fine
- and I've downloaded what appears to be the latest 1.0-4365 driver from
nVidia.com.  I've tried to get the driver working - but no luck.  Below
is my XF86Config file...but it doesn't appear to work - how can I
determine what the proper parameters are?

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier   "Monitor0"
        VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
        ModelName    "Monitor Model"
        HorizSync    31.5 - 82.0
        VertRefresh  50.0 - 100.0
EndSection
=20

Section "Device"
=20

        ### Available Driver options are:-
        ### Values: <i>: integer, <f>: float, <bool>: "True"/"False",
        ### <string>: "String", <freq>: "<f> Hz/kHz/MHz"
        ### [arg]: arg optional
        #Option     "SWcursor"                  # [<bool>]
        #Option     "HWcursor"                  # [<bool>]
        #Option     "NoAccel"                   # [<bool>]
        #Option     "ShowCache"                 # [<bool>]
        #Option     "ShadowFB"                  # [<bool>]
        #Option     "UseFBDev"                  # [<bool>]
        #Option     "Rotate"                    # [<str>]
        #Option     "VideoKey"                  # <i>
        #Option     "FlatPanel"                 # [<bool>]
        #Option     "FPDither"                  # [<bool>]
        #Option     "CrtcNumber"                # <i>
>>>>    Identifier  "Device"
        Driver      "nvidia"
        VendorName  "nVidia Corporation"
        BoardName   "NV11 [GeForce2 Go]"
        ChipSet     "GeForce2 Go"
        BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
=20
Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Device"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     16
        EndSubSection

The line marked above is the one that causes me the concern.  Please
help - I'm trying to get this working with the official nVidia drivers.
