XFree86 does not support 3D accleration on Nvidia hardware, and as such, Red Hat Linux does not support 3D on Nvidia either. You need to install Nvidia's proprietary video drivers in order to get 3D. Note that they are unsupported by Red Hat, but if you have problems with them, Nvidia tech support is happy to assist. Hope this helps, TTYL -- Mike A.
