I had similar trouble getting a FX5700 card up and running on FC3. What
did the trick was to put:
Option "NvAGP" "0"
in the "Device" section (this disables AGP which seems to be the
problem). I'm not sure what would be a better/more permanent solution to
the problem though - not sure how much (or even if) this affects 3D
performance. From the NVidia README:
Option "NvAGP" "integer"
Configure AGP support. Integer argument can be one of:
0 : disable agp
1 : use NVIDIA's internal AGP support, if possible
2 : use AGPGART, if possible
3 : use any agp support (try AGPGART, then NVIDIA's AGP)
Please note that NVIDIA's internal AGP support cannot
work if AGPGART is either statically compiled into your
kernel or is built as a module, but loaded into your
kernel (some distributions load AGPGART into the kernel
at boot up). Default: 3 (the default was 1 until after
1.0-1251).
Hope this helps,
