I'd say it was definitive proof! :-) I don't know what you are running, I'm presuming Squeeze as it's just a dummy package with Wheezy and Sid. I got that information from here:- http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/nvidia-glx-ia32
This version only supports GeForce 6xxx and higher of the Geforce GPUs plus complimentary Quadros and nforce. Look at the legacy packages for older cards. See /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/README.txt.gz for a complete list of supported GPUs and PCI IDs.
So I'm guessing that makes your card a "complimentary" Quadro. Cheers -- “We gotta come to some new ideas about life folks ok? I'm not being blase about abortion, it might be a real issue, it might not, doesn't matter to me. What matters is that if you believe in the sanctity of life then you believe it for life of all ages. That's what I hate about this child-worship syndrome going on. "Save the children! They're killing children! How many children were at Waco? They're killing children!" What does that mean?
