Hi Thomas, I too have a Geforce II MX and can help some... You need to get Xfree ver4.0.2 as the installed ver3.3 does not support this card. You also need the NVidia Kernel modules.(support/drivers/linux) www.xfree86.org www.nvidia.com And you will also need the kernel header files installed. 'apt-get kernel-header-2.2.18pre2' Install Xfree ver 4. first. follow the instructions and its fairly automated. Then you will need to install the Nvidia modules from Tar Balls.
Post back if you need more help. Regards Wayne.
