That's certainly not optimal, you need something newer for your card.

This seems to be an NVA5 chip for which you need at least kernel 2.6.39
due to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26980. And you have
to upgrade the userspace as well then (packages are in
squeeze-backports).

These demands clash, since very fast 3D is really only available with
proprietary drivers. Free drivers offer moderately fast 3D at best.
