I have a 7900gt, and use the nv drivers, and they work great. I have dual
19" lcd's and running anyting opengl between the 2 is smooth.

OK, I've been following the kernel-module-packaging threads on the various

supporting kernel modules, and have no respect for people who use them :-)
So... does anyone have suggestions for the "best" AGP video card / driver
combo for 3D gaming (say torcs, for sake of argument), if you're
restricted to the open source drivers?
Intel's newly-free drivers don't count, because you have to buy a whole
new computer (no plug-in cards)...
Suggestions?

I have had success with the nv driver that comes with xorg and nVidia
cards. On my machine there is little difference with glxgears between the
nv driver and the nVidia module from lvina.
I am looking at getting a new nVidia car while I can still get a AGP card.
Just waiting for them to go on sale again.
