I have removed the agp in kernel(there is no drm in my kernel), set the sysctl.conf and the xorg.conf. Recompiled and restarted my laptop. Xorg still crashed when I selecting the OpenGL Screen Saver. I can use sysctl -a, here is the result: 11:05pm kemian ~> sysctl -a |grep nvidia hw.nvidia.version: NVIDIA UNIX x86 Kernel Module 173.14.12 Thu Jul 17 18:06:02 PDT 2008 hw.nvidia.registry.EnableVia4x: 0 hw.nvidia.registry.EnableALiAGP: 0 hw.nvidia.registry.NvAGP: 1 hw.nvidia.registry.ReqAGPRate: 15 hw.nvidia.registry.EnableAGPSBA: 1 hw.nvidia.registry.EnableAGPFW: 1 hw.nvidia.registry.Mobile: 4294967295 hw.nvidia.registry.ResmanDebugLevel: 4294967295 hw.nvidia.registry.RmLogonRC: 1 hw.nvidia.registry.ModifyDeviceFiles: 1 hw.nvidia.registry.DeviceFileUID: 0 hw.nvidia.registry.DeviceFileGID: 0 hw.nvidia.registry.DeviceFileMode: 438 hw.nvidia.registry.RemapLimit: 0 hw.nvidia.registry.UpdateMemoryTypes: 4294967295 hw.nvidia.registry.UseVBios: 1 hw.nvidia.registry.RMEdgeIntrCheck: 1 hw.nvidia.registry.UsePageAttributeTable: 4294967295 hw.nvidia.registry.dwords: hw.nvidia.cards.0.model: GeForce Go 6150 hw.nvidia.cards.0.irq: 21 hw.nvidia.cards.0.vbios: 05.51.28.52.25 hw.nvidia.cards.0.type: PCI dev.nvidia.0.%desc: GeForce Go 6150 dev.nvidia.0.%driver: nvidia dev.nvidia.0.%parent: vgapci0 BTW, I have tried games/apoolGL, crashed as it started.
