you cannot use the dri module with the nvidia module. It's commented in the
README file.
Using the nvidia X driver requires some user modification.
First, modify your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 or /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Minimum requirements:
In Section "Module"
add Load "glx"
remove Load "dri"
remove Load "GLcore"
In Section "Device"
Change Driver "nv" to Driver "nvidia"
Also, look on the README.txt file from nvidia, the appendix F, about stability
in the agp module.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You should use the AGP module that works best with your AGP chip set. If you
are experiencing problems with stability, you may want to start by disabling
AGP and seeing if that solves the problems. Then you can experiment with
either of the other AGP modules.
You can query the current AGP status at any time via the /proc filesystem
interface (see Appendix M).
