What Modules do you load in your XFree86 config file ?
Following are the modules I load with the Nvidia driver, I'm not sure
which one I should use for nv.
Section "Module"
Load "dbe"
Load "glx"
Load "extmod"
Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
# Load "bitmap"
# Load "xtt"
# Load "dri"
# Load "record"
# Load "xtrap"
# Load "speedo"
EndSection
Thanks
