Maybe seeing what Nvidia installed for me (successfully) will help:
/etc/modules.conf:
alias char-major-195 nvidia
options nvidia NVreg_EnableAGPSBA=1 NVreg_EnableAGPFW=1
NVreg_ReqAGPRate=7
My equipment here is a modest nvidia GeForce 4 MX. I just used the
base installer, and the default installer right off the Nvidia
website...not the beta-test RPM.
If you need more, let me know...it's not a perfect install, but
Nvidia really works well once it's installed. The biggest problem seems
to be in merely following the rules, and not thinking too hard.
