   This card (GeForce4 MX) works with the "nv" driver that comes
with XFree86 4.3.  I can't say for sure if it's possible to get it
to work any other way.  It *might* work with the "nv" driver that
comes with XFree86 4.2 (your version) if you have one of the older
GeForce4 MX cards.  But, at a minimum you're going to need to 
modify the XF86Config file.  Note, that root can start the server
with an alternate XF86Config file from the command line. eg.:
  startx -- -xf86config /root/XF86Config.new
