You don't have an NVidia card, that's why. You have an ATI card which is a completely different beast.
I have an ATI Radeon 9000 Pro and, after some reading and googling, got the hardware 3D acceleration to work perfectly. Basically, read the information available at
ATI's linux XFree86 pages
That will tell you where to download the correct rpm which you'll need. The 9500 isn't mentioned but it is basically a scaled down 9700 so should work OK.
One problem I did encounter with the configuration though was that the BusID line in /etc/X11/XF86Config was incorrect. Don't know why as a quick check of the log file in /var/log/XFree86.0.log showed the correctly probed value. I therefore made the appropriate change :-
# BusID "PCI:1:2:9" # vendor=1002, device=496e
BusID "PCI:1:5:0" # vendor=1002, device=496e
Everything worked from there on and all those OpenGL apps now fly!
Let me know if you get it working.
