The nv XFree driver works fine with my I8100, Geforce2Go, with 32MB.
Suspends to RAM fine. Only thing it lacks is the ability to play ut2003

No eth0 configured at the time? the hostname is (presumeably) tied to
the IP of an ethN interface. Try localhost instead, see if that works.
Maybe X isn't listening on eth0 if it is up.

All I have on my 8100, is the floppy (removeable) and that works with no
