Did you edit the /XF86Config-4 file? Here's a snipet of mine:
Code:
Section "Module"
    Load "dbe" # Double-Buffering Extension
    Load "v4l" # Video for Linux
    Load "extmod"
    Load "type1"
    Load "freetype"
    Load "glx" # 3D layer
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier "device1"
    VendorName "NVidia"
    BoardName "NVIDIA GeForce4 (generic)"
    Driver "nvidia"
    Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Make sure that Load "glx" # 3D layer is not commented out.

yes, this was in the readme I told you to read ;). The nv drivers are the standard XFree drivers for nvidia cards and seldomly work properly :rolleyes:. If something would go wrong, then you can always use the XFree vesa driver, that one always work.
Code:
Section "Device"
    Identifier  "VESA Framebuffer"
    Driver      "vesa"
    #VideoRam    4096
    # Insert Clocks lines here if appropriate
EndSection
and to reply to estatik, :x works fine, I've never used :wq but it can well be that this works as well.

greetingz,
Elluva
