If you are running a Geforce 2 card like you mentioned above, that would
not surprise me, why the FPS's are low.

I don't Use NVclock to modify my XF86Config file. I do it manually. But
, add this line to you /etc/modules.conf file provided the GF2 supports
it. There's is more info relating to this stuff in the Nvidia README
file. I can't remember where it's located but you can get from the
Nvidia web site.

options nvidia NVreg_EnableAGPSBA=1 NVreg_EnableAGPFW=1
NVreg_ReqAGPRate=7
