</I>Yes. I'm far from being an expert, but it appeared to me that there is a
problem with the nvidia 173.14.30 driver Mageia 1 uses for FX cards that
isn't in the nvidia-current (225?) driver. I don't know if it exists in
the 96xx driver, too.
I apologize. I should have looked up the version numbers before my
original post.
