Do you think there's something wrong with my card? Those numbers seem
too big to bridge with a settings tweak or something.
It's a bit late to find this out if it is hardware. I bought the card
about 3 months ago, just not known how to test it.

<pre wrap="">Thanks for your help again Yan. I also tried letting the nVidia util
set my xorg.conf settings, but the results of that were the same
(10fps in glxgears), so I switched back to the xorg.conf that I set up.
I'm at a loss for what to do now. Could it be a bios setting or
something? What makes you so sure that the hardware isn't at fault?

<pre wrap=""><!---->
OK, so it looks like you have everything set up right... But you don't
seem to have any acceleration. That's bizarre. 10 fps is what I would
expect if I was using the nv driver....
You have a single head, right?
OK, looking back at the xorg.conf file:
In Section Module, take out
Load "glx"
Load "int10"
Load "vnc"
Load "vbe"
and remove the last Composite section.
Restart gdm (or whatever you use) and try it again.
</pre>
</blockquote>
When I removed all 4, glxgears stopped working. Putting "glx" back
started it again. I removed the Composite section too. Still no change
to performance.<br>
<br>
Tried tweaking bios settings and installed latest nvidia driver using
Envy, still no improvement.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your suggestions Yan!<br>
