(Big, Texas "Hunnnh...?") After looking at this log in detail (and googling to see others with the same card plus F9/10 and other distros having the identical problem), I guess the real question to ask is why the nv driver seems to support every nVidia card out there _except_ the GeForce 7100 series. Oversight? If intentional, why, and what can be done to include it? Happy to bugzilla this one as needed...
