My apologies.  Thank you for the correction.  For reference purposes, I
found these two links that should cover the difference between the
various Linux drivers:

Cards that are supported by nvidia-glx-new are here:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_18897.html

Cards supported by the two legacy drivers are here.  nvidia-glx cards first, 
then nvidia-glx-legacy cards:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_32667.html

And the GeForce2 MX is listed on these pages as being supported under
nvidia-glx.  That being said, as long as a card existed before one of
the older drivers, it should be possible to use your card with the older
driver.  So, even if the GeForce2 MX is supported by the nvidia-glx
drivers, because it was around when the older drivers were built, it
would also work with the nvidia-glx-legacy drivers.

I will also point out that there is an application called nvidia-
xconfig.  Check "man nvidia-xconfig" for the various options that may
need to be tweaked to get a card running with any of these drivers.
