You should use the nvidia-driver. If you have kernel .33 installed, you might give the nouveau-driver a go. This driver probably only supports 2D for your card, but you'll be able to get a graphic desktop from which you can start experimenting with the right settings for the nvidia-driver. http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/FeatureMatrix http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Nouveau
